Hello all, Ive been trying to research to best of my capabilities but have hit a wall. I was recommended to post here and see if anyone could give me advice on my current situation! So I have a desktop that i had bought for 100 just to get by on a few things. But have recently decided to start pc gaming. I know my current desktop is not a gaming rig but i would just like to see if its actually worth upgrading the parts in my current or just building from the ground up with my buddy. I will list my basic specs and anything else needed for any type of advice i will try to provide! Thank you all for your time!
