Re: Want to speed up my setup, what chip do I buy?
Well an HP board still should have a brandname motherboard in it. If you could get the model of it that would help.
Yes, it is a pain to switch out a processor. You have to pull off the heatsync fan which is tricky to get on and off, then pull out the processor then put in the new processor and reattach the fan. All while having to do this in the narrow space you have room for in the case.
Since it is an HP, I bet they probably make it difficult as possible to do that. It just might be better to get a cheap $300-400 dell and just devote that machine for poker.
Plus you need to find the exact type of RAM that is in your machine because you have to use the same type of RAM. And if it is an older box, it will be harder to find outdated RAM.
