hello first post
I would just like some general advice as i have scant knowledge of computers
I have at the moment a Dell dimension v350 which is almost 6 years old.
It meets most of my requirements but tends to go a bit slow at times, and cant cope with some applications, so i think its time for an upgrade.
Mostly used for the internet, letter writing and some kids games
The processor is a p2 350 on a motherboard with integrated graphics, The hard drive is 6GB with space for another hard drive if required.
Memory is 192 mb sdram(is that the right term)
I have a dvd rom drive and a cd rewriter
I'm happiy with the monitor keyboard and mouse and modem
can i upgrade my present system by just plugging in another processor and getting a bigger hard drive, and will this see me alright for a few years?
or will i be better getting a new mother board, processor and hard drive and use the existing power supply and parts?
Or just go for a new system altogether?
Thanks in anticipation
