[QUOTE="WockoLad, post: 364393, member: 55139"] Me and 3 bunch of friends have decided to see what PC's (used for gaming) we can snag for £50.00. Anyway, my friends don't know how to build PC's bearing in mind their only 14, so am I but i've been taught from a young age. Anyway. I have some old parts lying about from a Dell Dimension 660s (2011 Model). It contains the folliwing specs: [LIST] [*]Intel Core i3 (2nd Gen) 2120 / 3.3 GHz [*]4GB 1600 DDR3 RAM [*]Intel HD Graphics ( I did add a Low Profile 512mb AMD Radeon) [*]1TB Seagate Barracuda (Replaced for a 120gb Corsair SSD). [*]Windows 7 Home Premium (Upgraded it to Windows 10 before I wiped it as i'm not using it). [/LIST] Anyway, I'm thinking of keeping the original board, case, SSD, CPU and upgrading to 8GB RAM, (£35.00) and a Low Profile Nvidia GeForce 210 (1GB DDR3, 512mghz) (£15.00). I'll also buy a new Win10 License so I can get Speed on the Machine. And laugh as my friends PC's will take like 2 mins to boot to Windows and mine will take 10 seconds. We've agreed that it has to run Minecraft Smoothly at Medium Settings. Also bear in mind that my friends are very weak when it comes to Hardware & Software. Would this PC be alright? [/QUOTE]
