Hey guys. I got a couple questions about upgrading some of my hardware. I got a Compaq CQ5700F from a buddy not too long ago. Nice computer. Pretty fast with Windows 7. Plays some games pretty well.
I want to be able to play more, though. I already put in a total of 4GB of RAM and another 500GB HDD. I want to swap the motherboard for something with PCI Express x16 slots. It's a MicroATX board. Would ANY board that type work? The processor is an AM3 slot type. I might keep the current one, not sure. I want to be able to put in a good graphics card with at least an HDMI output. I have a DVI to HDMI adapter right now, but I don't like it.
