Alright, here’s my current setup: http://img208.imageshack.us/f/97146839.png/

So, can I actually upgrade the GPU? Is this card even compatible with what I've got: the ATI Radeon HD 6870

Is this actually worth grabbing if the price is dirt cheap? http://cgi.ebay.com/550w-650w-ATX-Po...item45f617d285

The power supply says it's a Colormaster Extrem Plus 460W...

So what actually counts as a decent PSU?

460W is pretty weak... I could probably swap that out for something a bit beefier, maybe north of 550W?

Is there any other way to get in besides opening the case? I can't crack it open because they slapped a sticker right over the latch that says REMOVING THIS SEAL VOIDS YOUR 3-YEAR WARRANTY.😠

how do I check what power supply is in my PC? is there some kind of software for this?

He said Reza is an idiot because the standard thing to do is set your monitor to its MAX resolution, not whatever mess you're doing.

sorry🙂

you're an idiot

😂:☕

Just one more thing: could I actually run GTA IV and Crysis on this rig at max settings?🤷

The PC is solid enough.. now I just have to wipe the drive and reinstall Windows 7 because this XP setup is total garbage.

Here’s how it looks:

Alright, I'm about to download this... just gotta check with the guy who set up my PC first. He mentioned that running Windows XP on this machine might be a bit weak. He thinks I’d be better off switching to Windows 7, or if sticking with XP is actually fine enough.🤷

Alright, my rig finally showed up. Here’s the breakdown of what I'm working with:😁

AMD Dual Core 945 Processor, 3.5 GB Memory, ATI Radeon HD 5700, 500W Power Supply
980 GB SATA
Is this any good?

What's the verdict on the ATI Radeon HD5770, 1GB? I'm looking at it for newer games.

I reckon it should hold up okay... what do you guys think?

Maybe there's some info here... I know it's got 4GB of RAM and a 640GB drive.

Found it. It's basically the same thing, except my power supply is 460W and the graphics card is pretty much identical. What do you guys think? Is this actually a decent gaming rig, or did I just screw myself over again?😁

I'll give you the full rundown once I get macOS installed.. should be about 2-3 days from now😉

haven't even installed macOS yet..

I can't find it anywhere online... all I can track down is the box.
