Do you have a budget?

Why will you need a mid range GPU when you can use the onboard?

she occasionally plays games, and i think its partly just so she keeps up with me and dad, i dont think she really needs the upgrade but she wants it

currently has a q6600 at 2.9, 32 bit windows 10 and 4gb ram, ssd

probably would have been better to upgrade the router as she has firefox set to open 6 newspaper sites on launching it and wonders why it wont load stuff... :eek:

The cooler master hyper 212 evo is a good cheap CPU cooler
