subject: Trick To Upgrade Your Pc On A Tight Budget [print this page] Till now you probably have an old pc to work with. But now it has started giving you problems and you want to upgrade it. But though it is an upgrade, still you dont have that much mullah to spend and is on a tight budget. So heres what you can do.
Right now your old pc is working, but not the way you want it to be. Also you dont want to shell out a lot by getting a new motherboard and a new processor. So what you can do is you can get a new faster processor than the one that you have, which is going to work on your old motherboard too. In this case you can opt for Intel LGA775 (Intel Pentium E6700 - 3.2GHz dual-core CPU) or AMD AM3 (AMD Athlon II X4 635 - 2.9GHz quad-core CPU) or AMD AM2+ (AMD Phenom 8650 - 2.3GHz triple-core CPU). All these CPUs work with old motherboards and are a lot faster than your current processor.
Next you might also get a new hard drive because the one that you have is running out of space as it has a small capacity. Since a price of computer hardware has gone down in recent days, you can opt for a 1TB hard drive form Western Digital at a very reasonable price point.
You would also want to get hold of a good graphics card. So check out ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB GDDR3 or NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 1GB GDDR3. Both these cards offer outstanding performance at a very low price point.
Finally you can add additional memory (RAM) in your computer to make it smooth and can also opt for a 17 screen if youre still stuck with a small one. If you have a 17 or a larger screen, no need to upgrade.
So in a really tight budget you can make your computer a lot faster and smoother than before; no need to shell out a huge amount to get a decent performing machine. For further tech support or computer help to upgrade your old pc, you can talk to a computer repair company.
