    Upgrading Old HP PC
    « on: November 04, 2018, 07:25:39 AM »
    Hello to everyone.

    I have an old HP Pavillion from 2007 or 2008. It has a Q9300 with a Geforce GT440.

    The motherboard is quite old, and has the lga 755 socket.

    I want to upgrade my pc, and from what i have researched i can upgrade to a Intel Core2 Quad Q9650 and maybe a 750ti (not sure if the mother board will support, but it does have pcix16).

    I have a 450w power supply so power wont be a problem.

    Is this setupd any good? If not any better suggestions?

    Thank you, and sorry for my english.

    Probably the best value for your money would be to put into savings the money you are willing to budget for upgrading that system and wait until you have enough to buy a new system.  If you build your own you can also get more for your money than from buying a factory build from HP, Dell or where ever else.
