@@gavincrash I know this comment is a bit old, but unfortunately, this PC wouldn't allow you to play any sort of games released in todays day in age. Even with the upgrades, it still wouldn't run any games at all.
@@naturalmystic5098 Hi! Unfortunately, no. The graphics cards built for today's PC's won't work with this motherboard. You're better off saving up your money and getting a modern computer than trying to put money into this one. It's not worth it, especially being the computer is around 15 years old.
Nice! So cool, i have the same pc, but i havent used it in 10 years xD, i want to upgrade it, and use the exact same parts as you! Can it run csgo, minecraft at low settings?
will this now run win 10? Or do you have to use the win 18.09 version.? I guess they want you to have at least 8 gig ram now...sheeesh! my 5150 has 2 hard drives...500 each, 4 gig ram, and all I have to do is upgrade that cpu card...to 3.8 if possible. I hope. I really hate having to replace a perfectly good computer just because win 7 is no longer supported. Any tips would be great!
Vicki k Gibson it probably won’t be great for Windows 10. I’d suggest Lubuntu, or another Linux distro. These machines are older than the average fortnite player after all.
Lol just found mine after years of no use... seems the CPU is missing!!!! Wondered why it doesn’t turn on (amber light) tried everything. Guess the computer shop nicked it years back when it was taken for repair !!!
Peter Neil it might get 30 FPS on the first euro truck simulator, or far cry 1. Half life should be decent. I know that it gets nearly playable framerates on NFS carbon. So if that’s what you want to run, sure. Otherwise, you might be better off with an Athlon APU.
Hello. Anyone know the best available graphics card or a decent gaming graphics card for this computer? I've played WoW the Burning Crusade with the oem parts for this computer and it played fine. I was wondering if "anyone" knows of better upgrades to set up for "WoW Classic"? Thank you.
I had a nvidia gtx 560 running on a pci extention cable. BUT it needed another power supply 500 watts as it needs a power lead. Also the fan fouls the cooling box. I have just put a GT 430 which works fine.
Hello man, sorry for my english, I'm brazilian, I have a dimension 5150 and I need to upgrade it to an Intel Pentium D945 Processor 3.4ghz 800 Fsb 4mb cache and 4 memory 1gb Ddr2 Kingston 667mhz Kvr667d2n5 / 1g Pc2-5300 Cl5, my question is will work, what problem is this from bios F1? Congratulations on the excellent video, I apologize because I understand, I believe that about 40% of what you said! Anyway Thank you!
Camilo Figueiredo I believe the bios key is f2, because dell uses that most of the time. Try delete as well, if that still doesn’t work just try all the f keys(f1-f12)
Here is the list parts upgrades.
(1.) CPU: Intel Pentium 4 530J SL7PU @3.0GHz (1MB L2 Cache 800MHz FSB)
(2.) RAM: Samsung PC2-4200 (DDR2-533) 1 GB DIMM 533MHz DDR2 M378T2953CZ3-CD5
(3.) Video Card: NVIDIA Quadro 2000 1GB GDDR5 SDRAM PCI Express x16
I'm trying to upgrading my mom's old dell dimension e510 to a powerful gaming pc would I do the same for this?

These weren't bad at all. I had an E520 that wouldn't die. Ended up as Q6600/8GB DDR2/SSD/Quadro 4000 lolz :D
Hi, yes i am going to install winxp on this machine and would be great gaming on older games 2003, 2004, 2005.
Hey do you remember which specific ram sticks they were? As well as the CPU? I have an E510 and I'm looking to upgrade.
Crucial memory advisor shows this system can take up to 8gb of ddr2 pc2 6400U. Have you ever experimented?
Hi! Well job! Is that LGA 775 motherboard? Thanks for video!
Hi, yes socket LGA 775

Would this be good for gaming ?
No, this computer is almost 15 years old. It's not good for anything other than retro gaming.
