Id rather pay the extra and get a £130 or so bundle personally, you'll get a better mixture

Why is it on it's last legs, what's the current PC spec. Facebook ain't exactly intensive.

brandobhoy

it just really slow, config it back to factory setting but still still running crap, no sure of full specs but it a packard bell i bought 6 years ago, built my own one so she got mines

Slow loading web pages, used it the other night n got bored waiting lol

Might just need some memory n a full clean again...not sure

to be quite honest the only thing that bundle has going for it is its low price, other than that it sucks, single core cpu, 1gb ram, and a naff mobo.

what sort of budget are you looking at for 'upgrading'?

brandobhoy

didn't relise it was a single core cpu lol...maybe lookin at £250 max for the complete build

wot about these 2?

whats you 'whole' build requiring, as you do pay a slight premium for a bundle, and if you building the rest you may as well build it yourself, it really isnt that difficult
