"Hi @darsparx

Here is a link to the user guide for an Inspiron 530.

Scroll to p.179 for the specifications of the PC.

If you already have this information, apologies."

If you could provide more information about what components are in the machine such as what type of RAM and speed is your RAM and what is your CPU. I would add an SSD for sure on the PC. That will speed up the PCCrucial MX300 750 GB SSD is an easy upgrade.

Aside from a SSD, you may be able to fit a small GPU in the system. Something along the lines of a GT 730. It won't be a great gaming machine, but it will work to get you playing.

I had added an EVGA GForce GT610 to mine. Just make sure that your power supply is at least 300 Watts. I finally retired it this past weekend. I had also upgraded it with a 2TB hybrid drive, and I had placed 4GB of RAM in it. A 32 bit OS is not able to see more than about 3.5 GB of RAM so it's recommended for you to install a 64 bit OS.
