Why is my computer not as fast as others. I have been asking all about what I could upgrade my computer to make it better. And it seems from what I have been told. It is a pretty good machine. It has pretty good stuff. I mean not the best. But what could i do for an upgrade to get the most out of my PC?

It depends on what you want to do with it.
The general possibilities would be to add 2GB more RAM, graphics card, and/or a SSD.

Here is mine with my Vaio laptop Vertex 2 drive. Not too bad, but not the best either. I haven't tweaked anything and at boot I have about 70 processes loaded.

With my WD 2TB EADS green drive installed, I was consistently getting ridiculously long boot times:
After removing the WD to another PC:
40+ sec difference just by removing a HDD
If only I could improve the BIOS POST speeds...
On the plus side, I finally see what everybody was raving about with SSD boot times

This is where the DIY systems falls behind laptops or prebuilt PCs (with optimized BIOS of course). The BIOS is not fast enough when the motherboard supports a lot of crap. My laptop boots 10 seconds faster (31s vs 40s) with every device being way slower on the paper, because the BIOS in the laptop is super fast. I have done everything as possible to make the desktop PC POST faster, but no no. I bet PCs which use integrated video POST a lot faster. It takes a long time for the display to come ON at the first place. There there is the point where it detects hard drives!With my WD 2TB EADS green drive installed, I was consistently getting ridiculously long boot times:

Out of the 41 seconds boot time in the desktop PC, BIOS takes up about 20s. 40s is the reboot time. So shutdown time comes into play as well.
