I'm not much good when it comes to hardware, but I would say that would depend on quite a few things such as the motherboard.
Have you tried asking the people at BleepingComputer.com ?

I used to do that back in the day and apart from higher scores in 3D Mark PC rating software, I never noticed any difference. Keep in mind that faster versions of the same processor are often just that- the same processor batch selected by the manufacturer, and thus overclocking (with the implicit overhead of improved cooling) often gets you to a similar higher 3D Mark score. Then there's a chance that you may need to flash the BIOS to support a faster chip. Also, PCs tend to become out of date so quickly that a new one is often better than an upgrade, although any new PC at first boot seems to fly like the wind. Personally speaking, I'm done with disappearing down that rabbit hole Pat.

I have answered you on your identical post on Bleeping Computers. Replacing your hard drive with an SSD would probably be the only cost effective option. Anything else would be a waste of money.

Oops, just found your post on BC.  It would seem your best option would be to try to get a new one if possible. It would probably be cheaper than keep spending money on the system you have. |
