Ok so I am getting an HP TouchSmart IQ507 from a guy at work.
$100
it has 4gb ram and a 500gb hd.
Getting the wireless keyboard and mouse as well...
so memory cant be upgraded past 4gb (2 x 2 gb so-dimm)
it has a 500gb hd which is fine for now for family to do their school work...
but cpu. I do not know anything about these newer (i know they are older but I have been out of the hw side for a bit.. since q6600) processors.
It says supports:
Processor upgrade information
Socket type: P (for mobile processors)
Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:
Core 2 Duo (Merom)
Core 2 Duo (Penryn) (supports Penryn core with front side bus speed of 800 MHz only)
what processor would be best suited in this machine? will be school work and occasional games so will worry about video card later..
I am not sure what CPU is in it yet but will find out tomorrow..but just looking at what will be the fastest processor for this unit.
