you may also ADD 500GB for your files | make your old hdd as OS | program files disk only

now thats just upgrade for your rig.

if u can spend more buck

better to change platform , say LGA1155

pwede ra man ang original HSF ana

Original HSF is ok as long as di ka mag overclock.

kani TS, gihungit na jud ni ni sir butitoy nimo, ayaw iluwa hehe

1. Pwede na diretso sata. Di na need ug adapter.
2. Ug kana ra nga games, pwede na e7500. Mas maayo E8400. Stock cooling is enough. Lets erase that notion that stock cooling isnt enough. Pinahambog ra ng sa uban..
3. Kato girecommend ni brad Butitoy.

grab that q6600 from benz already... thats already a good upgrade considering ur budget limitations... but if naa ka plano major upgrade in the next quarter or so, then hold nalang sa upgradititis, or maybe just buy a decent videocard for now.
