Im thinking of getting a new cpu for my pc.I know that my pc sucks but im here to update it!Heres my specs: (bye the way i need the cpu for newest games(not to expensive too) but i need it to work with my pc as i don't want to change anything(ram,MOTHERBOARD, and other stuff like that except im going to change video card and increase the ram size ))
Did we not have this discussion before? You can't really change your CPU without changing your motherboard, you certainly wouldn't net much of a benefit - your PC just needs updating entirely, a new CPU alone won't do it.
your saying i cant install new cpu on my pc.And im planing to update my video card and ram too!I dont need a very good pc i just need to get my cpu to 2.6-3.0 ghz
Not doable I don't think - your board won't support CPUs higher than 1.8Ghz. You need to get a replacement motherboard too.
finaly one gave me a reason for buyng a new motherboard!!! core2kid told that i need a ASUS P4P800 motherboard and i wouldn't need to change anything but he mentioned ill need to reinstall OS.But i dont understand how!I need to reinstall windows???
Hi, i don't want to sound rude. But you don't sound overly confident when it comes to PC's so i would suggest taking your PC to a store and asking them for upgrade advice.
It's going to be a full system rebuild, so you might want to consider getting a new PC built from scratch, even if its a custom spec one - if you do do that, make sure you get one with a decent graphics card, not the 8500GT, 8400GS or integrated rubbish they like putting in them.
Well, quite. 1GB of video memory? How could I lose?! Lol I fell for that once can you believe, of course back then it was a 256MB Radeon. A 256MB Radeon 9200...
lol, loads of ppl think the more MB or GB there is the better the card, its and easy explote that PC sellers can use.
and yet it would be really nice to see 1GB on a 9800GTX or 8800GTS G92. I don't think one even exists, does it?
i found one 8800gts with 1gb, but it is really expensive. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814261006
Im not planing to buy a new pc its too expensive for me as im only 16 years old and my parents like the current pc..I looked in the motherboard book and i got that i can put on my pc up to 2.2 ghz!So i can put a 2.4 ghz card?
I don't wish to be rude, but if the book says 2.2Ghz, what do you think the chance of using a 2.4Ghz will be?
ah yeah made a mistake but the minimum system requirements for cod 4 says that need : Intel Pentium 4 2.4 GHz or AMD Athlon 64 2800+ processor or any 1.8Ghz Dual Core Processor or better can i install one of those 1.8 ghz dual core proceesor on my current mob??
I would say probably not, you need a dual core compatible motherboard. Also dont always trust Minimum requirments for game. Alot of the time, even if you meet the minimum requirments the game still wont run or will be as slow as hell
We've been through this before, your PC CAN NOT play new games. You HAVE to fully upgrade it in order to do so. If that's not something you can afford to do, tough luck I'm afraid.
I know that i need to upgrade my pc to play newest games!but im asking can i put on my current mob 1.8Ghz Dual Core Processor?!
