I wish to make high quality animation. The machine is more than 15 years old. What are the upgrades required for making such a machine suitable for making high quality animation and for working on Godot ??

You might be able to get away with just upgrading the graphics card. Depending on your setup, that might also necessitate a larger case.

Depending on the software requirements you might need more RAM and a better CPU. If you need a new CPU, then you’ll need a new motherboard. At that point, you’ve got a whole new machine. 😂

And you might as well upgrade your storage while you’re at it.

    @dohpaz42@lemmy.world l think you've understood my problem perfectly. I'm thinking of an 8gb ram, Ryzen 3, AMD gcn 4th generation, 512 GB SSD.

    If you can afford it - given the recent high-cost of ram - I’d recommend at least 16GB. Otherwise, make sure your motherboard can support more ram for when costs come back down.

    Good luck!
