Pc specs

600watts true rated psu

check mo muna sa crucial checker if supported niya 16gb ram

8gb ram na lang bilhin mo total of 16gb. itaas mo din hdd mo 1TB. mas maximise mo na bilis nyan. to follow na lang psu mo na itaas pa ng konti.

well, di mo sinabi exact models ng parts mo
so i'll give a general answer
h61 mobos usually only have 2 ram slots... unless 4 yung sayo...
kung yung 8gb ram mo ay 2 na 4gb, kelangan mo tanggalin yung 2 na yun at palitan ng 2 na 8gb para maging 16gb
pero kung isang 8gb ram stick lang yan, madaling mag-upgrade... pero make sure na pareho ang timings at speed ng existing na ram mo sa bagong ilalagay mo...
also, h61 mobos usually only support 1333mhz na ram... kaya you really have to check your manufacturer's website sa ram compatibility

also, try adding an SSD at gawin mong boot drive... sa mga lumang system, napakagandang upgrade nun
