Hi,
I have a budget of £350 to upgrade my current PC and I am looking for suggestions. My current PC is as follows;
1.2Ghz Duron, Jetway m/b with 256 pc133 RAM, 80Gb-2700spin HDD, 32Mb NVidia GeForce 2, Pioneer 107 DVD RW etc....
I have a requirement for at least 1Gb of RAM and 4 usb2.0 ports. I have no sway towards AMD or Intel but I am told that AMD is better value for money. My main use for the pc is downloading large files, movie manipulation, burning etc. it is never used for games so I do not see the need to invest in a better graphics card, although I am open to reasoning. In the very near future I would like to have a wireless network with my childrens pc, with the intention of sharing my broadband connection to allow for online gaming.
Heres the tricky part, my budget can only be spent at ballicom.co.uk, so I need to ensure that any of the components recommended can be purchased there.
Thanks in advance for any help provided.
