hi guys let me start off by saying it's been a decade since I built and OC'ed a pc. I currently have ,roughly , a 8 year old dell desktop with a AMD six core.
Now keep in mind. I don't game anymore. I rarely use it to surf. It's just to pay bills. But I want to have a tad of fun so that's why I'm here for some advice.
The hard drive just crapped out so I ordered a Samsung EVO 850 250gb for my new boot drive.
The memory is stock. The psu I replaced with a Corsair 600. The video card is an ATI....ugh....middle of the road card from 7 years ago.
Anyway. I could just put in the new SSD and call it a day but if I can get away cheap enough I was toying with the notion of getting a better motherboard to OC.
Is there anyway you guys think I can do this with the stock memory?
I know I'd have to get better cooling for my proc but I really don't want to through a lot of money at this.
