    PCSPECIALIST Upgrading CPU

    Hi there Spyder. Don't get me wrong, the PC has done myself and the family fine for the last 5 years. Just thought that as I needed to, I would be able to upgrade it. Isn't anything about this build upgradable to modern standards???

    PCSPECIALIST Upgrading CPU

    The whole reason I went for a PC over a console was so I could upgrade as when needed. I don't have a specific budget in mind but I got this build 5 years ago with the expectation to upgrade as I went along. Surly, upgrading will still be cheaper than a new build right? The GPU has been fine...

    PCSPECIALIST New to PC gaming - Advice on specs please

    Just curious then as to why PC specialist are recommending the GTA5 Pro PC at £1000 as a mid range option with an entry level at £680 and the extreme package at just under £1300 if they aren't any good? I'm not looking to spend thousands on something that's not really going to benefit me any...
