Default Thinking of building

can anyone set me up with a build less than 175 dollars that could beat my comp right now (sig)?? or should i slowly upgrade my current comp? oh and i already have my hd its not huge but its big enough for me. and i don't need a video board either. or monitor, or keyboard things of that nature.

i think that you should upgrade over time, it would be pretty hard to build a computer for $175
