    Want to upgrade PC. Halp?

    So basically In about three weeks time, I will get about €150 - €200 from my uncle for minding his stupid dog.

    My PC is really shit and I really want to upgrade it but I don't know enough about computer hardware so I don't know if anything would be compatible or worth buying.


    I have no clue what's the name of my case. I've had this computer for about 3 years now and at the time I was using a 5 year old computer and I had NO CLUE about computers. My 5 year old computer broke so me and my mom found this weird thing on the internet, was cheap nuff so we bought it. That's the only image I could find of my case (I'm not bothered to take a picture of it)



    And here is what's inside of it.





    I would like to upgrade as much as possible and gain as much performance as possible. Basically, should I upgrade my GPU or CPU or maybe add more RAM? What's more important? Will my motherboard support it? Should I upgrade that? Or maybe my HDD is shit.. upgrade that!

    I don't know. I need help. Thank you

    I'm sorry but you just don't really have a good PC. I'd recommend sell it for as much as you can get and save up for a new one. The case looks sick though!

    Yup, save the case, and sell all the parts inside of it on ebay or something. Your PC in general, sorry to say, is pretty bad. Just save up and build one up yourself. That's what I did.

    Alrighty then. Thanks guys Unless I will find myself a job during the summer holidays, it will take me about 2 more years to collect enough for a good enough PC. (Approx €750)

    $750 is pretty average. Around $800-$900 will get you a good PC

    First thing I'll change is adding ram at least 16GB and adding a SSD. What are you trying to do with the machine?

    Just play games with a good framerate. Mainly GTA V. On this machine it runs at around 30-40 fps minimum graphics. I would like it to run at at least 60 at low settings.
