Hi Guys
I was thinking about trying to get my(dead slow)Pentium III 500 up to speed,and was hoping maybe somebody could point me in the right direction.
I'm kind of real dummy,when it comes to the technical side of a computer...so don't get too upset,if ask some pretty stupid questions
First off,heres her spec's right now.
DELL
Pentium III Processor (500MHz)
128MB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 420
20gb Hard drive
Creative SB live
I was planning on just getting a new system in a year or two,but after stumbling across this site,I got the idea...maybe I could just tweak this thing for the time being,with some new hardware.
There's a couple things I'm not sure about though.
Is a motherboard all I would need,to get the Mhz's up to todays standards?
Or should I just get a P4 processor?
I'm kinda on a budget,but I'm not trying to go the absolute cheapest way possible.
Any thoughts,or advice on what to do would be appreciated.
Thanks TC
