Okay. Imagine that I want to install everything from zero to win 10...
change ram, I deduct to look for 1 or 2 slots to get to 16 gb...
then a processor with soket amd...
video card (ge force 210) if it turns I hold this (last cost more video cards of the processors) hd I keep my

a spanne... you know what expense you can expect to fully exploit the motherboard cator that I have?
bear patience but I always believed that my motherboard and processor did not turn on win 7.. And you tell me I could even get to win10. last doubt.. programs that only turn on xp? Can you emulate them on win10?
Thank you.
cpu used on ebay
phenom iix4 980 3.7 ghz quad core around 70€
phenom iix6 1100t 3.3 ghz esa core around 105-130€
2x 8gb ram ddr3 pc3-10600 1333mhz....about 80€ new
for the video card there is the embarrassment of the choice from 30 to 160€ you will find better vga of the 210 until you arrive to the rx 480 that in the cad knows the fact its although not being cerified and a firepro w5100 4gb around 100€ or less.
the total spending ranges from 250€ to 400€ depending on how you move...
 
great point to reflect. . thank you all...
I could evaluate the purchase of win10 home on usb pen (150.00), replace the processor immediately looking for a cpu with am3 socket (100.00-150.00)... "return" xp sp3 with win10 and continue the hardware update (ram, video card etc) when I have economic availability (more' forward)... that you say... an update so it seems more 'indolore' at the economic level of a purchase from 600-800 euros (in block) of a regenerated pc. . .
ps replacing the processor loses everything " pc"? so you are obliged to format or only succeed in substitution motherboard?

I'm ignorant!
 
the pc is really old, risk to spend 200-300€ and then have to change everything in a little bit. If you decide the same on this street, as far as cpu socket am3 is now out of production, maybe find something on ebay and however you have to bet on the used or on stock funds. 16gb ram ddr3 you find new ones at about 70/80€ and video card are another 150€ for a new base level (but at this point I would also look for you a used one).

as written in the previous installments seriously evaluates to invest on food 1000€ of pcs that you will take diert for another 5/8 years.

in both cases install windows 10 and from scratch, solve a lot of problems!! I speak from experience, do not upgrade. Then, if you have special programs that don't support you w10, install an emulator with the operating system you need.

You have no problem. this happens only by changing the disk. in your case change cpu, ram, video card (or whatever you want) and then update the drivers simply... Either way, cross your fingers!
 
.... for the video card there is the embarrassment of the choice from 30 to 160€
a video card would make me comfortable, to do you have any links to suggest?
I draw a used off warranty, about 50%, 60% of the value of a new video card of equal performance, shipping included. But it seems that my idea does not collimate with the market :confused:
so far I have almost always bought new.

for video cards according to me it is risky to buy them used, unless (uncommon case) the price is almost gift.
are components that usually heat a lot and are often stressed out, there is the risk of buying them or that they do not work from the beginning or that after a short time they fail.

hi gil, for video cards I looked at ebay where I noticed amd rx 480 and rx 580 at about 120-160€

I bought several used on ebay and never a problem.

I give you a tip.... maybe there is still a chance to upgrade from win xp to win 10 for free with the old win xp serial....microsoft offered this opportunity to expand the spread of win 10.
As for your ignorance, you're quiet that those who least are all on the same boat. ;)
 
oh... free (now free there is nothing)... you know by chance where and/or a chi or procedure Do I have to seize to use it?

thanks for the answer

the procedure is this... scan the iso of win 10 and install it as the serial asks you enter the one of win xp or win 7....I tried this procedure on two pcs with win 7 and so I went to win 10. by xp not absolute certainty but an attempt I would do it.

I don't know if you can still do it, it was an opportunity in time, at least 3 years ago.
 
Hello, everyone.
I join the discussion with a question: using a shopping mall PC for a cad 3d used not professionally (i.e. 8/10 hours a day) and with basic rendering not pushed (what was obtained ten years ago to understand us) is an heresy or does it work?
about win10: I used it for a while and it didn't bother me. the only rupture of boxes was that he was making updates when he wanted and lately it seems to me that he takes more time to upgrade him than a user uses it.

assess whether to open a specific discussion.
the question is vague, to see what is this pc "from the mall", try to apostate the specifications and model. also to understand what you mean by "non-propelled background".
