Require H/W assistance for compaq desktop.

[IQAMATEUR]

Hi All,

I am having a compaq presario 6201IL desktop.I had bought it in December,2003.I will give you its current specifications:

AMD Athlon 1800+,1.53 Ghz
384 mb DDR Ram
40 GB HDD
4X AGP slot( with no graphics card :)
Windows XP pro

For detailed specifications please check the following link:

HP Presario 6201IL Desktop PC (India) -  Product Specifications 

It is an old system and requires a massive overhaul.I had only upgraded the RAM from 128 mb to 384 mb a couple of years ago.It probably requires a processor upgrade, RAM upgrade, graphics card .I had bought a 500 watt PSU that could suite these needs.
I am concerned about the compatibility issues that may arise if I do not buy the right components.Do let me know of any components that could fit well, irrespective of the price.

Could you guys help me out with this.

Cheers,

It all depends on what you want to do with the PC you use.
If your only using it for browsing the net then it's sufficient.

IF however your wanting to play the latest games, video-editing, or such like then you could really do with a whole new set-up starting with a new mobo.

you need a new motherboard, cpu some nicer RAM and that is just the beginning
