M2n68 am plus. Sata 3gb/s ddr2 1066

These are your CPU options : https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M2N68AM_PLUS/HelpDesk_CPU/
Of which Phenom IIX6 1065T(HDT65TWFK6DGR),2.9GHz,95W,rev.E0,SocketAM3,6-Core is best possible
Memory can't go over 8GB of DDR2
Expensive GPU is not needed for that job, don't know what you have now.
Although it's only SATA2 (3Gbps) an SSD would also help a lot.

Please help me. I had brought msi 450 pro m2v2 with razen 3 2200g and installed 16 GB ram with 800 walt smps. My old ssd hard disk is not working so I brought 120 gb ssd and a laptop hard disk of 120 gb both are installed and windows 10 in ssd.
Whenever I try to install a new file it opt to c as it's in ssd.. it does not have much memory.

No I wish to buy on nvmi ssd to attach my motherboard.. what about it. How does this works. Or adding a sata harddisk of one tb with existing ssd of 120 GB.. what will be better.. please advise
