hi
1st is the motherboard,
2nd possessor,
3rd ram,
4th graphics card,
My laptop is capable to play mid-end games like Sims 3. As I have a laptop, I only can upgrade the RAM which 4gb is plenty for me. If I had a desktop, I would firstly see what motherboard I have got because I will need to a buy a graphics card which is compatible. Also, upgrade processor and RAM.
Memory is the easiest upgrade to improve your performance. Two to four gigs will make a great difference. An upgrade processor would also help if they are available in your area.
Add RAM! Up to the limit that your motherboard can support. Open the case, remove the old, smaller memory card, plug in a larger memory card that is compatible with the OLD memory card. You add more RAM. The motherboard on your computer has sockets to take RAM. There are different types of RAM so you need to get the right version. There is a limit to the size of the RAM that your Motherboard can support, and that varies from machine to machine. If you don't know the details take it to a computer shop and get them to upgrade it for you. They'll be able to tell you what type it takes and how much you can put in.
Not unless you replace the entire motherboard. Intel and AMD processors use different sockets and different chipsets.
Packages, or bundled software, will vary from computer to computer. The majority of bundled software is trial software, often with a discounted upgrade price if you decide to continue using the software.
To add a second processor to a computer, you need a dual-processor motherboard.
No you cannot :(. The PlayStation 3 has a intergrated GPU(graphics card) which is solderd onto the motherboard, and there are no slots for a graphics upgrade unlike a computer which can be upgraded.
You can't. The processor is usually soldered onto the motherboard in netbooks.
If you are moving your current processor into the upgraded motherboard, your current cooling fan does not need to be upgraded.
Yes it matters. if you want to use a computer for graphics then you need a fairly large processor. if you want to do games you need a big processor. if you want to upgrade your OS someday then you need to have a good processor. Also, the size of your processor effects your speed.
It depends on the motherboard. If your motherboard supports core i3, it is possible, if not it isn't.
Yes, you can. The motherboard is equipped with a PCI-e port so you can plug in a graphics card.
Of course, however you have to know the type of processor you can handle. You may have a HP, DELL, COMPAQ, or other brand written on your computer. Go to their site and put in the product key on the computer, it should direct you to your model. Now you can look at the specs on your motherboard and it should tell you what your motherboard is aloud to upgrade to for you processor. As for the power supply =, you may want a specialist to look and see what kind of power supply you should buy depending on what your trying to do. Hope this helps!
Unfortunately, your A8 processor is not upgradable, as FT3 Socket (BGA769) processors are soldered directly to the motherboard, and are not removable.
It's not generally a wise choice to try to upgrade a graphics card on a notebook. On most notebooks, the graphics card is integrated to the motherboard, so you'd need to replace basically the whole notebook.
Take a look at your system motherboard to see if it has an AGP or PCI Express card slot (it will be the topmost expansion slot on the motherboard--your monitor should be connected to the card currently sitting there). This will tell you which type of video card is available to you.
Check your motherboard or call your manufacturer. Make extra sure before you buy a processor, as many will be incompatible.
