Re: Advice needed on upgrading an 9yr self build
The cpu will be alright I suspect.

I would upgrade the GPU to this:
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/power...gx-18l-pc.html

With that if you was to buy it whilst the offer is on, you will get 2 games that you could easily chuck the game codes on Ebay and get £40 to £60 back and you get a free 240Gb SSD.

Then swap the ram to this:

If you did want to upgrade the cpu then you could look on Ebay for a I7 860 or I7 870 probably only cost around £50
