Processor

[MarineCorps]

I got a Q. I want to upgrade my Processor to something a lot more powerful then what I have now. I currently have an Intel Pentium 2 Processorand this is what I want upgrade to http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?j=1&type=product&id=1066094444684&skuId=5521848 . Is this a wise choice? Will my computer be able to handle it is mainly what I'm asking? Adn will this thing fit into the Processor socket?

I have no idea what you're trying to see because I can't view that page. But you'd need a new motherboard for the newer chips I'd think.

Here's the correct link.

To upgrade the processor from a PII you'll need a new motherboard, and a new motherboard will mean buying new memory too. You might find it'll be cheaper to buy a whole new computer than to try and upgrade what you've got.

Joy. So mcuh for my fun in upgrading. Oh well I suppose it's time to save up. And get a computer from DELL. <sigh> I give up constantly setting IE setting to allow Bestbuy. I say allow it but the seetings keep getting changed back.

Or you can save up and buy a really good computer by building it yourself.
