If he's just playing RTS games or older FPS games, stick some more RAM in it - the X700 should be able to cope with most stuff, though a 1.7 is a bit slow for modern games.If he's wanting to play up-to-date stuff, upgrade the whole lot. Especially if he's lost his mind and is considering Vista. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hougtimo Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 Wellhe's playing stuff like BattleField, and WoW etc...With a budget of £120 its a bit tight to upgrade the whole lot. He doesn't want vista and is happy with xp. I was thinking maybe along the lines of 1gb ram and a 2.4(ish) P4?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
