i5 Upgrade to Dell Dimension 4700?

[program not responding]

Dear Forum,

I have an old Dimension 4700 with a 300W power supply. Can I just load the following components and have a new computer?

I want to use it for stock trading. I typically have 2 or 3 trading platforms open and 5 or 6 web browsers. Will this be good? Please make suggestions!

Thanks a lot!

Sincerely,
Mike

Those are good choices, but I would get a new case and PSU as well. Mainly because dell cases often have the motherboard mount on the opposite side (I think it's called BTX). I take that back, I just looked at your particular model and it looks to be on the right side. Not sure if the screw holes will be in the right place though. Definitely add a power supply to that list though.

Thanks, Linux!
Could you help select one? I don't have a clue.
Also, would Ubuntu work good for me?
Thanks again!
Mike

As for the PSU, Antec is usually better. Here is one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371029

It would unless you are using specific stock trading programs that only work on windows.
