it is only compatible with 512 MB of ram, I want that upgraded which will need a new MB. will any of my component be compatible with this replacement motherboard http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=6150K8MA-8KRS&cpc=SCH

any help is much needed i could either upgrade this system i am using right now or just buy a new case and start from there. i want it to be under 300. i just need some ram cause i like to play WoW and i cant on this one that only supports 512. so i need to upgrade basically.
 
It would cost more to upgrade this than to just buy a decent PC. I wouldn't waste your time.
 
ugh no this computer wont do any good for gaming and upgrading wont affect much you'll be better off buying a gaming PC
