Hey guys, so currently I have a Compaq Presario SR5085AN desktop. I'm looking at upgrading the cpu and ram (to 4gb on 32bit windows 7), can you tell meproducts I canlook into for my pc upgrade (on a budget so best if the parts are cheap). This is the specs for my desktophttp://h10025.www1.hp.co...docname=c00913812#N283. I've upgraded my gfx card to a NVIDIA GeForce GT 430 and also I've replaced the psu with a 350W psu (Naxn 350W). I know that my motherboard is extremely old and can only support AM2 socket cpu so I would be possibly looking at replacing the motherboard too.
Can you guys suggests a motherboard that can support/fir all the components I already have so that will allow me to upgrade my cpu and ram too.

Thanks

Yes this setup would work if you got an ATX case as the mobo is ATX, might be pushing it with the PSU though. Also if you're going to get mobo+cpu+ram from computer lounge get the combo deal as they save you a few bucks.
