Is this a good computer?

[jakes810]

Pentium(R) 4 cpu 3.40 ghz
1 gb of ram
NVIDIA Geforce 6200 A-LE
Lite on DVDRW LH18A1P
and an 80 gig hard drive
And if is not what can I do to make it better

 

[ben_ben]

i would say better processor like amd dual core or somthing
and bigger hd
im not sure about that graphics card

depending on what you do the CPU would last a while, but like ben_ben said, go with an AMD dual core if you limited on money or somthing. As for memory you have a decent amount, but the video card is crap.

 

[ben_ben]

or if you want a faster cpu lol
amd= faster cpu for less money
intel=more money but faster overall

 

[jakes810]

The amd is about $400.

 

[ben_ben]

yea how much is the intel?

 

[ben_ben]

and what is the speed differential?
compare amd sempton with intel Pentium

 

[jakes810]

What kind of amd do you suggest would be good. I dont the best one just a decent one, cause i dont play alot of games and the games i do play arent great.

A good processor is AMD 64 dual core. More the bit the better. you dont want a 32 bit.
