PC Gaming Upgrade Help
Hi, my son is wanting to upgrade his desktop and has asked for some advise. I’veupgraded a few PCs but I’m recovering a stroke so need some help/advice with this!
He currently has:
Processor: Intel Core i7 860 @ 2.8GHz,4 cores, 8 Logical
Motherboard: Dell Inc. 0G3HR7 (CPU1)
RAM: 6G DDR3 @ 653MHz
He would like to just upgrade the CPU – is that possible?
Dose he also need to update the motherboard too?
He needs to keep the price low so any advice would be appreciated (he wants to use it for gaming with a CPU benchmark of ~9000).
Any help or advise would be really appreciated – thanks.
