Hi, i have a a computer who is outdated and has 10 years old. In the URL above there is what he has. I don't know much of how to upgrade, to increase it's speed. I wanted my pc for gaming but day by day games evolve and need even better requirements. Mine is outdated, it has 1,5G RAM i can tell that's really low because for example the game i wanna play has a minimum of 2GB. I have this tower with this old upgrades, i would like to know if it's cheap to upgrade my tower to a nice gaming experience with good, nice quality mods with the lowest money possible, because i'm facing a hard time due to monetary crisis. If it's not cheap enough to upgrade my tower to a good gaming pc, i was thinking in buying a laptop and maybe it's the best choice. I need some help on this 2 topics. I need to upgrade my tower with good upgrades with the lowest money possible or find a laptop good for gaming and not super expensive.

I have between 140euros to 600euros "virtual" savings.
The most cheap option the better but i wasn't looking for low quality stuff. I would like nice quality stuff and resilient for low price.

For this i would need help from someone who is an expert on this topics.

Need help please, sorry for long text.

you will likely be starting scratch, mobo, cpu, ram, psu, gpu, etc. probably could go with a amd apu build and skip paying for a gpu for a bit, or do a intel i3 chip with a cheap discrete card...either option would probably fit within your budget
 
I will try to follow your advice and get to know better that parts with someone who knows near me. Need to find someone who knows where to buy them nearby. Ty, really ty
 
My build in my sig cost me 600 American Dollars back in September of last year. I can play any game out, and most are on the highest settings possible, or very close too it.

The Sound and Monitor were not included in that 600 however.
 
Hi

To be honest you are probably better off either replacing your current machine by buying a system with the specs you require for the games you wish to play or you could build your self a decent machine for a bit less than buying a pre built system.

I say this because it sounds like to much would need upgrading to handle the games you want to use.
