Hello guys,
So i've been a console gamer for a long time. But recently i found i want to get into PC gaming a bit more.
I'm not looking for the best of the best, because well, i can't afford it. My Parents have an old rig which i have found and is the Philips MT2400. I was just wondering because of the lack of processor power, it is a 2007 model i think, what can it handle graphics wise.
I'm looking to upgrade the RAM from the current 1GB (i think) to the 4GB i know it can handle, but graphics card wise, i have no idea.
Wondered if you friendly folks could throw me a bone.
Specs: (what i know at least)
CPU Intel® Pentium® 4 640 Prescott (3.20 Ghz)
Motherboard ECS 915P-M3
Memory 1024 MB DDR RAM - (2x 512 MB - PC3200)
Hard Drive 250GB Maxtor®
Video / Graphics Card ATI RADEON x550 PCI Express TV Card Hauppauge®
Is the NVidea GeForce 9800 Gt still good, or am i looking too low?
If im honest im not really looking for anything over £200 but if you guys could let me know if im way off with my budget.
Thanks in advance.
