Hi all,
My son (12) has a birthday coming up. He quite enjoys online gaming and recently tried the Leggo Incredibles game. Unfortunately, his 10-12 year old PC spec (video card) didn't meet requirements.
Consequently, am looking at the following. Nothing too flash, but within price range.
Appreciate any suggestions on significant improvements for not too much cost.
Thanks
