Hi team,
-before you read, don't laugh, I know it's old, but it's all he has.
My 11-year-old son was given a "Hand me down" PC from a relative. It's a little old but with his pocket money, he is keen to try and upgrade some of the components to make it suitable for some gaming.
My first question is the option for a processor upgrade to what he currently has.
The motherboard is an MSI H61M-P20(G3) with an i5-3470 @ 3.2GHz CPU.
We will get some new RAM, 16GB (2x8GB) 1600mhz
So what are his options?
