I have an older HP running windows Vista, here are some specs:
AMD Sempron
300w psu
320 GB HDD
2gb DDR2 RAM
motherboard m2n68-la Narra6
What upgrades should i do for a decent daily use pc that Iwant to run Windows 7 on?
Upgrade the ram to 4GB's; if you're running a lot of applications, then you'll need the extra space. Of course, this could mean upgrading your motherboard to one that supports DDR3, but I'm not sure if yours does or not.
If your processor is only a dual core, you might want to upgrade. It depends on what you do for a day-to-day basis.

if you want to game just get a 6770 for under $80
OEM boards are very unlikely to support Chips over 95w
that CPU won't work
it is kinda confusing where it says both DDR2 and DDR3 but if you look it also says its AM3 which means its DDR3
what is your budget?
any Phenom II X4 that is under 95w, which is not 125w
get the 945 then
Buget would be max at 300, thanks for the info guys
