    @@Theutmostgeek Allergies are different then "disgusting" :) The 9500 I have has the same nice white case. No integrated GPU, I don't remember which was inside when I got it. The CPU is a poor Pentium M 3 GHz, and 4 Go ram. Can't be updated to a Core 2. It runs perfectly with XP and 7. And of course Linux. Far Cry 1 with all video options to max in 1600x900 runs at about 95 fps in the demo scene at start up. But remember there`s a GTX 750 Ti inside now ... Heaven run at 14 fps in 1440x900 :) Since there's a IDE connector, it's a perfect "retro" machine. The bios is a pain, since it complain about the drives connected when we connect/disconnect them. I really enjoy this computer. I wonder if Win 10 has drivers ... I will try it. And Win 98 too :)

    An e8400 and R7 240 2gb GDDR5 would be a big upgrade. Just make sure you get the GDDR5 version of the R7 240. It's more powerful than a Gt 730, and you can overclock it right in the AMD software.

    my honest opinion i wouldn't scrap something like this, especially if it's your first pc. wish i still had mine, it was a late 90's Compaq and first computer i ever used to go on the internet at the time, it accidentally got thrown out in the trash, crazy how time fly's and things change. also these type of systems are a bit rare nowadays even if it had dead hardware in it. if you want to repurpose it (if the hardware is not dead) get a ryzen APU and a micro ATX motherboard, what ever the cheapest that you can afford. but it's your choice what ya do with it.

    Did yall know God's Son Jesus Christ Died On The Cross and Rose Again From The Dead out of The Tomb on The 3rd Day. He Died for Everyones Sins even Mine. He Paid the Horrible Price we should have Paid. But He Paid it So We Would Have A Way into Heaven. if We Repent for Our Sins and Believe in Him and Serve Him and Obey Him. So I Encourage Those We Are Living In The Last Days I Encourage Anyone Not Saved Now Its the Time To Repent And Live For The Lord Before Its To Late and God's Final Judgment Comes. After you accept Jesus Christ into your heart and you Repent for Your Sins Your Name Gets Written Down in The Lamb's Book Of Life. and You Gotta Continue to Serve the Lord and Repent for Your Sins all the days of your life until Jesus comes back to call His Church home. Because No Ones Perfect we all Sin. but we need to Not Willfully Sin. and i will admit i have willfully sinned multiple times and I feel Guilty About it So I Repent we Were Made sinners because of Adam And Eve. but we dont need to Sin on Purpose. But We Sin All The Time Because we Humans get Angry and hurt people. and Are Hateful toward people when God commands us to Love Our Neighbors. and Pray for Our Enemies. there is all kinds of Sins. We Are Allowed to Be Frustrated at Peoples Actions. Without getting Angry and injuring People and breaking Stuff. Or Name Calling thats Wrong to. Heaven And Hell Are Real... and after Jesus Christ comes back and calls His Church home. Alot of people will be left behind because of being to caught up with the world and not believing in God. and other stuff And During that time the Anti Christ will reveal himself and Lie to People and Say Hes Jesus Christ. and he will try and Deceive the ones in Israel. and in turn Try and And Deceive the Entire World. and he will try to force People to Receive a Chip in their Right Hand or Foreheads.The Anti Christ hasn't Revealed Himself yet Though. and If you havent noticed they are trying to push for digital currency but we dont know who the Anti Christ Is. Only the ones left behind will know unless people make things right with GOD. Revelation 20:11 KJV And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. Revelation 20:12 KJV And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. Revelation 20:13 KJV And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. Revelation 20:14 KJV And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Revelation 20:15 KJV And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
