Computer Upgrade or New Computer?

Depends what kind of build you have. If it's a name brand (ex. Dell, HP, etc.) then get a new one, because you won't be able to upgrade graphics on the majority of them. Custom builds are extremely easy to upgrade though, and are always worth upgrading unless every single part is obsolete.

If your using it just to access internet and download, maybe an additional hard drive would be fine.

Everything pretty cheap now, you can easily get a decent computer for a few hundred.

I also spent a fortune years ago on my computer, recently built my own computer which is heaps faster but costs heaps less.

You can easily get away with upgrading but it can only go so far, and if you want to do more with your computer then what you've described to me so far then buying a new system would be better and keep in mind your current system is old, it will die eventually and upgrading is limited to the scarce items that actually match with your system.

Put your current computer on advertisement or Ebay and sell it. Use that money and money you already have to custom build your own computer. I don't suggest buying a new computer from tecn stores as they are very expensive. If you visit your local computer technician store or whatever they can probably build you a PC that suits you at a decent price.

With the way technology is advancing buying a new computer is always the best option.

If you play the new 3D action games move to a new computer. If you just use for study & the internet the one you have is just fine.

i had the same question too...

i would consider you to buy a new computer but why go for all that time getting a new one?

of course i would make a huge update to the latest things on my computer and its three years old..

you should do updates to your computer it works harmoniously.. :D

cheers
