Processor and Video Card help

[Ludichris1]

Ok, my computer has a Intel Celeron 2.53~ GHz processor.

(it's a Windows XP Home SP2, 34 GB Hard Drive, 256 MB RAM, if that helps some {COMPAQ Presario SR1103WM})

Just to let you know I was planning to upgrade that RAM.


Anyways, about the processor... I was wondering, could you put an Intel Pentium 4 processor in their? Or even an AMD?

And the graphics card in an Integrated Graphics 82845G and I was wondering what would be the best upgrade (i think my PC is AGP and PCI slots).

Thanks in advance!

You won't be able to use an AMD processor. They are a completely different socket. Even with more RAM, your computer is beginning to show it's age. Have you thought about building a cheap computer? If you get a powerful card, your CPU will bottleneck it. Not giving you the speeds the card can fully achieve. You won't find a few, if any AGP cards still being sold.

AGP
PCI

Most of these cards won't be powerful enough to handle any of the latest games.
