You can't upgrade that it's too old nothing would be compatable if you're looking for a budget pc I suggest the Alienware alpha it's what I use, although u may need a new monitor because the monitor you use now does not support hdmi which most new computers use. Good luck

With the Alienware alpha you can play league very high settings 350+fps 1080p

Its only got 1 gig of ram so that would be relatively inexpensive and have a huge impact if it actually can take more. It might be hard to find though(which might make it not inexpensive).

Beyond that there's really not much you can improve, everything modern is going to be incompatible with. You could probably find something used that is a few years old that is MUCH better for only a couple hundred bux so spending anything to improve that thing would basically be a waste.

Do you know the exact specs of your computer? Those are the sales model specs as sold by dell. If you didnt buy it new they will likely be different.

run dxdiag, select save all information then open the text document and copy everything from this: "------------------ System Information ------------------" to this: "------------ DxDiag Notes ------------"

If you bought it from dell or a retailer then you will need at least 1 more gig of ram, more is better. But if you have 32 bit windows you cant exceed 4 GB. A graphics card will help too, but isn't needed, just strongly recommended.
