PSU I have a few here that are pretty good and with PCIe connectors. The only reason it has 4gb of ram now is because the CPU can't support more. I will add at least 8gb if not 16gb. He would probably like to play some games. nothing top tier but Minecraft and so would be cool. He likes RTS games and so. Right now I downloaded Doom (1993), Fallout 3, Diablo 2 and Starcraft. Some of the older games are still great ones.
An SSD is definitely being put in. and Worst case I still have my old Q9300 C2Q system which He might get anyway. I really love collecting older tech and still having them run well. The Q9300 was my fist setup that I upgraded over the years. Started out with that, 4gb of ram and a GT250 from MSI then a 560ti then 760 and finally over y few more years to my system now which of course I have swapped everything lol so it is no longer considered an upgrade except for the case. (i5 4690k, Asrock Z87, 16gb ddr3 and a 980ti.)
