    PC is this. http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/en/WF06a/12454-12454-64287-321860-3328893-4025818.html?dnr=1

    CPU: AMD Sempron 140

    PSU: 300W

    He wants to upgrade his graphics capabilities, plays F1, bus simulator, flight simulator stuff like that and has up to £300 to spend so I do not know if it is possible to put together a cheap base unit for that amount, could cannibalise his existing PC for the odd bit.

    But what are his realistic choices?

    Could upgrade to an Athlon II x2 processor and drop in a half decent GPU. Only worth it if sourced second hand to be honest as it is an aging Dell machine we're talking about. So a new unit for £300, look no further than this video...
