    Gaming PC upgrade advice

    you are going to struggle need twice that budget for an all new machine. Probably looking for a really cheap second hand dell box with an i7-4790 in it and then buy a GTX1650 but its not something i've done before personally, others on here may be able to give advice

    Old pc upgrade?

    Your chipset on a GTX 1050 shows you dont need much more than a GPU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REUNIDWc5Hs&t=148s

    Old pc upgrade?

    Is this build compatible (PC not turning on)

    That wiring Mobo resting on a metal case like that lack of mounting stand offs My guess, they have no idea what they are doing, have rushed it without watching or researching some build videos on Youtube and fried the Mobo

    Q6600

    I might clean it up, pick up a 2nd hand GPU and ping Win10 on it and give away to a local kid. It’s got a GTX8800 in it now haha
