can you recommend anything to boast this rig?

Hi Guys,

I've had this PC for a while now and just wondered if you could recommend anything to give me a bit of a significant boast?

Obviously nothing will be massive just wondering. I bought the machine 2 years ago so lord knows technology has improved loads since then. maybe double the ram ? improve the HDD?

I would stick a SSD in there, rest of the system is pretty good in my opinion.

Have you tried overclocking the system

Thats still a half decent rig.
Only upgrades that could do much...
CPU: Q6600 or similar
SSD: Like RJC said the OCZ Vertex 2E is a nice piece of kit should boost booting and game loading.

As above really

If your going to invest any more money in that rig.... make sure it's something that you can carry over to your next big upgrade

Not sure if I have £100 sheets for a HDD. Although, you're all definately right. I've seen those WD Caviar ones for £30 online.

Do you think I should look at investing in one of those?

My HD drive now is nothing special.
