Hi all,
I am currently back in England (from Australia) and my parents computer is feeling old and tired.
Currently the spec is:
Intel E5200 Dual Core OC'd to 3.0 GHz
4GB of DDR2
ATI 4770
MSI G31M3-F
OCZ 600w (OCZ600MXSP)
250GB Samsung 840 Evo
1TB Samsung F1
As you can see apart from the SSD the system is 8 or 9 years old.
It is all running on Windows 10 and doesn't feel very responsive at all, the CPU is often maxed out and the GPU is not supported by Windows 8 or 10. My parents use the computer for internet browsing, emails and accounts etc.
I am thinking I could just swap out the Motherboard, CPU and Ram and everything would be good. Would like to do this as cheaply as possible what would you suggest?
