Hey, I am going to be upgrading my computer again....
My mother dell has finally out lived it's use, it still works perfectly it's just the socket 478 celeron and mother board is just getting slower...
I talked with her this morning and see wants to spend 600 dollars on a new dell ? I told her that I will take her dell computer case and rebuild it into something a lot better than what she has now.
I will be giving her my motherboard, ram, and cpu all she would need now is a good 400 watt PSU which I'll get off of ebay.com
She doesn't do much with her current setup except office documents, watch youtube surf the internet and upload pictures to her HDD.
Would my current motherboard and cpu benefit her needs ?
The motherboard is very quick and celeron dual core hardly lags not unless I am dong hard multitasking.
If you guys agree that I should give her my parts, she would owe me about 145 dollars for new parts for my computer.
Here is what I'll get:
Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-G31M-ES2L LGA 775 Intel G31 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Intel Motherboards
Newegg.com - Intel Pentium E5200 Wolfdale 2.5GHz 2MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor - Processors - Desktops
Newegg.com - Kingston 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory
She wants me to sell her old motherboard and cpu, I told her the current price for both these would be less the 50.00 also I would put a add in the newspaper yet again and sell it to somebody who needs it.
Basically my budget will be under 150.00 does anybody else have any other opinions on the parts, and no I am not going to use AMD.
