Help/Advice with Dell Dimension 1100

[Cairnsey]

Can anyone tell me if upgrading this model of Dell simply requires a new motherboard and video card to be able to play modern games? The current gfx chip is an intel i865g. All I want to do with it is play Tiger Woods 08!

I read somewhere a while ago that Dell use their own PSU's. Can anyone confirm this?

Yes I'm pretty sure that Dell use their own modified PSU plug, you might as well buy a new computer then try and upgrade a dell

I wouldn't throw it away too fast - it might take a moderate graphics card upgrade and some RAM but that would be about it.

You'd be prolonging it's life rather than seriously upgrading it. It might run Tiger Woods into the bargain as I can't imagine its ultra demanding.
