Okay my friend Dwarf. I assume you are talking a whole computer for $300 dollars. Are you going to use any of the items from the old computer in the new one like the case, hard drives, CD or DVD drive? If you are it would be nice to know which and what they are i.e. make and model. What is the overheating computer Make and Model? On the existing computer can you add a faster cpu, more memory and better cooling system to solve the problem. More data please Mr. Dwarf.
I'll look up Make and Model but basically I need to replace the cpu and memory and I want a larger Hard drive and I need a graphics card my current system is not up-gradable enough to handle Windows 10
Using the current Mouse, Keyboard, Monitor and DVD drive and since I'm a long time customer of a local small-business I get free file transfer and the parts price is negotiable :thumbup:
Intel duo core 6300 at @1.86 Ghz, 32 bit 2gb ram
That's great but to know what you can upgrade to I would really need to know the System Name or Motherboard name.
Oh, Brain Malfunction :lightning: :blush: I forgot to wright that down
300 dollars probably looking at an amd computer as intel run 100 higher, just about any computer today in 300 range will run skyrim, as for video card should be fine with the newer 50-70 dollar cards for now till get more money for higher end card in future...
