Compaq Presario SR5010NX

I don't know if this is in the right spot or not however, I have a problem... My computer is a bit slow I believe one of the reason is it is just a "word/research computer" Looking at my computer what do you suggest I upgrade to pay at least a decent online game? I have 1.5 GB mem.

Edit: After thinking.. My CPU is at 100% a lot of the time. I don't know why this happens but I don't know if this would be a issue


Thank you.. your advise is much appreciated.

Hi,

I have viewed your specs and recommend a new computer... but if you insist on upgrading you will need several things.

1. Get at least 2GB of memory or greater for smooth game play.
2. Possible video card if you are playing decent graphic games.
3. Power supply if you are getting a video card, most cards these day need 6 or 8 pin connectors to operate and your power supply might not have that.
-I would recommend a 400 wattage power supply or so.
