My younger cousin is looking for a new PC or maybe to upgrade.
he has a P4 2.4Ghz 533 with 512mb ram and a crappy graphics card.
I'm recommending a whole new AM2 system
CP-164-AM AMD Athlon 64 3500+ 2.2GHz (Socket AM2) - Retail (CP-164-AM)
£66.95 £66.95
MB-147-AS Asus M2N-E (Socket AM2) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard (MB-147-AS)
£69.95 £69.95
MY-030-GL GeIL 1GB (2x512MB) PC5300 667MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX21GB5300DC) (MY-030-GL)
£54.95 £54.95
etc.
but i'm hearing news of this conroe.
should i recommend he wait or shall he jump in and buy. or should he just buy a new graphics card?
he wants it for gaming mainly.
budget is very small, his dad has instructed me to spend minimum amount possible for him. so no set budget just as little as possible.
