If you built it or if he built himself you can overclock it other than that not much to do to speed it up, maybe clean up some files here and there, you can download the program in my signature called clean-up. If he did not build it then he would have to get another CPU to get to 1.3

Here is a cheaper 1.3, this is only guessing you are using a socket 370 board.

then here is a more expensive one
