Tiger Direct has a Quad Core processor for just $60, which sounds pretty cheap to me
the questions are: can my older rig take one of these? how do you install a processor? and is it worth it, or should I got for a whole new rig at this point??
I've installed Ram, a new power supply, video cards, and thats about as far as my PC knowledge goes.
My specs are: HP Pavilion a1440n with 4GB DDR2 Ram, Intel Pentium D 2.8Ghz Dual Core, Nvidia 8800GT, 250GB 7200 HDD, and DVD 16x Supermulti. I have Win Vista 32bit
I've watched a few videos on the subject but I'm totally lost on if I can even do this. Do I need software?? do I need a different version of Windows? any advice would be appreciated
