Ok I'm a newbee but pc savy. I would like to increase my computer speed with a better processor. I have looked up everything I hope to know about my motherboard , such as processor compatability, and speeds. I have contacted my OEM, Gateway, about what I can upgrade to and they told me to ask Intel about it. Well they no longer support my dinasour 845G series chipset nor will they advise me on what to upgrade to. From what little info I could get, it looks like I could upgrade from 2.40Ghz/533Mhz to 2.80Ghz/533Mhz, Pentium 4. Would anyone know if I could go higher or if that little change in speed would make a differance?
