Hello this is my 1st post after taking a million years to make an account. I have a desktop and a laptop im looking to upgrade my desktop.
i use my laptop mainly because its a lot newer and faster but im getting back into using my desktop, my desktop is about 6 years old well the PSU CPU MOBO AND HARDDRIVE is everything else is old but not as old lol. I use my Xbox one most the time for gaming but im recently getting back into steam games counter strike ect i use Photoshop a lot 1st thing i was gunna do is buy a new psu something 600w or something.
I'd appreciate any feed back on how best and what hardware to use to upgrade it. I keep it clean it only has a 250gb hard drive which is only
100gb full. I'm not a serious gamer or anything and i don't want to spend ridiculous money if i was i would have just bought a gaming machine
already built , i play games on steam , hitman absolution , counter strike source BF2 things like that , i use Virtual box a lot as well
