I'd go for a GT 1030. It's pretty cheap and it's new

Within the installation disc, there should be a button which you can press to open up a list of tools you can use to repair your boot sector. If I remember correctly, The button should be located just before you install windows using the CD Key. Something about "Repair this computer". Within...

You could mount your pc case to the wall like what some people do. It would save give you a lot of space to work with.

Your Processor might not be shutting down but it might be thermal throttling itself. It might be intentionally slowing down it's core clock to keep the temperature under reasonable temps. Did you ever try replacing the thermal paste? It might just do the trick and make your i7 work like it...

Heya there! The better choice would be the Asus ROG GL503VD. There really isn't much difference between the 7700HQ and the i7 8550U. They have the same core count. The 7700HQ does have a higher clock speed which should help a little bit. I also checked the mx150. It seems that it's similar to a...

That's alot of ram for an old system. Setting that aside, If I would be in the same situation, I would probably make up my mind to buy a 10 series video card for the system. Buying a new video card wont bottleneck significantly so you can use it along with the new gpu until you decide to upgrade...

Hey there zack! Your bootloader might be broken which is preventing windows from properly starting up. You can easily fix this by getting a windows installation disc and using startup repair. If that doesn't work you can use the built in command prompt to repair the boot sector which usually...

Those temps on your processor are pretty toasty don't ya think? During the 2 years you've had that laptop, did you ever have had it cleaned? You could clean it and reapply thermal paste or try to get someone professional to do it for you.

It may be because of the operating system you have. 32 Bit Windows will only use up to 4GB of memory. Try checking if your OS is 32 or 64 bit

The GPU will be held back by the CPU by quite a bit. That's why I'm telling you to start planning the next upgrade (Preferably the CPU, Motherboard and memory). You can indeed play but you will not be able to utilize 100% of the GPU until you upgrade your processor to eliminate the bottleneck...

If you are willing to risk some bottlenecks here and there, you could start off with a decent gpu upgrade (Preferably an rx 460, gtx 1050 or 750 ti). You can then start planning out on how to upgrade everything else to effectively eliminate the cpu bottleneck

I'd suggest you switch to a newer socket. Try the Kaby Lake G4560 and 4GB of DDR4 Memory. Stick to the integrated graphics for a little while. Then later on, buy the other 4GB ram along with a 1050 or a 750 ti. The a4-6300 will bottleneck a 750 ti or 1050. Note: You'll have to buy a new...

Hey there Chrilexgaming. You could start with telling us the specifications of your PC
