Hey guys, I'd like to ask for some advice.

 

Lately I've gotten 2 second hand old pcs, both not very high-end though I'd like to use it as a htpc/server box (for example for minecraft) though I'm unsure if the hardware I have available will be strong enough. Here's the list:

 

PC 1:

ram: 2GB ddr2

gpu: geforce gt 310

cpu: still have to check, but i think it's a pentium

 

PC 2:

ram: 2GB ddr2

gpu: geforce 7900s

cpu: core 2 duo e6400

 

ill probably use the core 2, though im not sure which gpu to use. Aside from these things I have everything else.

 

Thanks in advance!

GT 310 is better but they are both complete and utter shit to be honest here... stick all the RAM in one PC if you can, that will help slightly atleast

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
