You should just go throw your PC out of the window and think long and hard about why you bought an alienware PC.

Your entire computer. What you have now is rubbish by Alienware. I'm sure you love the LED per dollar ratio they offer. If you are looking to seriously upgrade though your GPU should be next up, you have a GT210 that I'm sure you paid an extra 190% for.

But, it wouldn't be worth it considering the system is running DDR2 and an older AMD chipset. You are better off building an entire new system, there is so saving this one except maybe your hard drives.

Sorry for being so harsh it's just the truth of the situation. If you are interested in building a new PC though with better price/performance just make a build request thread.

Terrible PC, you should slap yourself for buying an Ailenware.
