What i do for my old PC?

What should you do with your old PC?

You can do plenty of things with an old PC besides sending it to the recycling heap. Let's take a look at a few ways you might put that old system to work.

1. Convert it to a NAS or Home Server
If you're running a home network and have multiple users- Just reuse as network-attached storage or even as an actual server may be just the ticket for an old system.

2. Give it to a relative
if you really don't use the old PC at all. just format and clean your personal information and give to some relative. but here are some warning message. when you do this. you may be the 24 x 7 IT support Guy ~!

3. Use it for old-school gaming
Related to the idea of using an older system as a dedicated game server, consider repurposing that box for old school gaming. You can go as nuts as you want. For example, install Windows 98, so you can run those older Windows 95 and DOS games, if you have some around.

4. Sell It
Somewhere on eBay, someone is looking for a computer. They may not be able to afford a new PC, or are looking for a second PC for the family. Your old PC, at the right price, may be just what they need. Assuming it all goes smoothly, everyone wins: you unload your old hardware, which finds a good home with a new user who can appreciate it.

5. Upgrade It
This is the way I'm doing now. spend some time to source the internet and forum. some second hand hardware like CPU and Graphics card is extremely cheap to purchase. 

You may still easy to get the function and good condition hardware upgrade from : 
SSD : USD 25
CPU : USD 35 ~ 50
GPU : USD 35 ~ 50
RAM : USD 10 8GB DDR 2 or DDR3 

Once you have done the 4 part I mentions here. you will surprise how good of your old PC to run the latest OS Win 10 in free ( i will put this in another topic in my blog post again ) 
able to support most of the latest online gaming ( in the middle graphic ) 

I will share in more details in a separate blog post "The power of budget PC" again.
