Question

My computer:


Dimension C521
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 3600+
Windows Vista™ Home Basic
2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz- 2DIMMs
Video Card NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE Integrated Graphics
Hard Drive 160GB Serial ATA Hard Drive (7200RPM)

Thinking of upgrading from Vista Basic to Ultimate, think my computer is ready? I know there is an advisor but I'm asking from professionals


If their any hardware you think I need to upgrade, please let me know =D

Answer 1

I don't know what the last guy was talking about, you have a good system except for one thing, the graphics. It will run Ulimate with that, but you might have a little slowness if you try to use Aero. But you can disable Aero if it gives you a problem, and still use the rest of the features. You really should think about trying to get some kind of dedicated graphics card though, even if it is only an inexpensive one.

Answer 2

Why do you think you need Ultimate?

That system has a tiny hard drive and doesn't even have a real graphics card.

I hope that system is only like $500, because you could build to those specs for less than that.
