Got an old pc upstairs gets limited use but looks like useage will be increasing. With a budget of £200 I obviously ain't gonna get a gaming machine but not sure if it's worth upgrading or just buy a pre-built barebones (think that's what they're called?) desktop.
Spec. at the moment, according to Belarc Advisor is:
2.00 gigahertz AMD Athlon XP on a Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. GA-7DXE 1.x motherboard, with 1.25GB of ram (3 slots, 2x 512MB + a 256MB). Hard drives need replaced either way, two small capacity old IDE drives in at present.
System would be used for surfing, school projects & light gaming (a 10 year playing kids games really).
Any advice appreciated as always.
