I get a continuous flow of emails from readers asking me about the best bang for the buck PC upgrades. Let’s look at a handful of $100 PC upgrades that can add a new lease of life to your existing system
CPU upgrades
What you’re looking for here is whipping out your old CPU and replacing it with a newer, faster part (perhaps one that also has more CPU cores too). Ideally, you want to replace the CPU without getting into a position where you need to replace the motherboard along with it (which makes the upgrade more complex and costly).
Because of the different kinds of CPU sockets out there, let me give you the best CPUs for a number of popular sockets:
- Intel LGA775
Intel Pentium E6700 Wolfdale - 3.2GHz dual-core CPU - AMD AM3
AMD Athlon II X4 635 Propus - 2.9GHz quad-core CPU - AMD AM2+
AMD Phenom 8650 Toliman - 2.3GHz triple-core CPU
E sempre straordinario poter Upgradare la propria macchina senza spendere un capitale
