[barryk32]

The time has come to replace it, I know nowt about the inside of my pc and would like some opinions on what is going to last me.

Got a few new games that will not play.

Thanks in advance.

What computer do you currently have and what's your budget?

[barryk32]

I have no idea how to get my specs easily, my budget is i would rather pay alot for one now rather than go for a cheaper option and need to replace it in 6 months time.

Thanks for the reply and sorry about being so vauge, I really have no idea when it comes to hardware issues.

With your comp specs, you cant really buy anything too advanced since your system cant handle it. Tbh it would be best to look int buying a new comp.
