well first off, yes i should build a new one but i'm on a super tight bugdet at the moment so this is what i have

AMD sempron 2400+ 1.67 ghz 192 of ram

well thats what my computer says

iunno how to check my mother board etc

what order should i upgrade at? ram first or stuff etc etc i'm on a low budget and just wodnering how i can get the max outta this PC =] thanks
 
Download Everest, and tell us what Motherbooard you have. But I recommend getting more RAM.
 
find out what video card you have also. it's in device manager under display adapters

anyway, the 4 vital parts of a computer are: motherboard, CPU, RAM, video card.
 
is this what you need? btw lemme know exactly what product to look for so i know its compatiable thanks ^^

that's what I was looking for.
this is an integrated video card, which you cannot put into another motherboard.
so if you're going to upgrade, you will have to get another video card too.
 
um iunno i was thinking just get some ram first, then maybe a new mobo i'm lookin below 100 just to tune it up a bit till i get a new PC
