Hello all! I want to upgrade my computer, but it can't cost alot. My budget is around 150 euro, and i want to improve it alot, with my small budget I live in the Netherlands. What do you need to know? I'll tell everything you need to know What i don't want: Other OS Other Case Other Harddrive Thanks
Main uses for computer: Current specs: (processor, RAM, memory, Graphics, etc.) Laptop or PC: Any other info about your current computer than might possibly be relevant:
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ (2 CPUs), ~2.2GHz OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (6.0, build 6002) Don't blame on me about using Vista RAM: 3GB Swap file: 6373MB Graphics card: Radeon X1300/1550 Series It's a PC. I have two screens. My 'gaming' screen is 15 inch and 75Hz, my other is 19 inch and 60Hz. Both resolution is 1024 x 768, 32 bit. It's a DELL, 6-7 years old, second owner (I don't know ), Not self made, only thing modified is extra RAM. It has no speakers inside it and also no wireless internet. What i don't want: Other OS Other Case Other Harddrive I'll soon post a picture of it inside.
Can you find info about what Mother Board you have in it? Try to find a model number on the case, and then Google from there.
Ignore what I said, use this: http://download.cnet.com/CPU-Z/3000-2086_4-10050423.html Use the direct download link. Install it and go under the Mainboard category, and tell us your Model
Oh ok, I just seached in the PC, and I couldn't find anything good. The only thing I found was this: https://www.imgur.com/yTZocPE.jpeg Btw, my PC from inside: https://www.imgur.com/RRdH6Nm.jpeg
That is pretty old. If you want to increase your CPU performance, you could always get a better CPU fan and try overclocking it a bit.
Check your task manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del) and go to processes. There you can view a list of all processes and how much memory/etc is being used by those processes.
Faster Command: [Ctrl] + [Shift] + [Esc] This makes task manager come up immediately, instead of going to the windows security screen.
