If your CPU is old though, it will also need replacing. Your best bet to increase performance is to buy a better video card. You can buy them from any pc shop and its easy to upgrade.Upgrading my dell dimension series 5150 for new games?Adding more memory is the most cost effective upgrade you can do for a computer. You need to look inside and see if you have another available memory slot. If so just add more of the same type that is already in there. If you do not have an available memory slot you would need to remove your current one and replace it with a new larger one. Make sure you turn it off and touch the power supply to discharge any static electricity before you touch anything inside.



After that your video card is the next thing you wnat to consider changing. Unless it is built into the motherboard and if so and you have no AGP video slots available you are stuck with the one you have.
