Hi there - my HP pavillion is getting quite slow and I was wondering if I can easily upgrade parts in it to increase the speed in it instead of having to purchase a new one ?

 

Thank you in advance for your support

@carllux,

 

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

 

Your HP Pavilion All-in-One 24-xa0xxx as fitted with the Diamaster motherboard (SSID: 84EE) supports Intel 8th and 9th Gen "T" series processors, with the i7-8700T, i7-9700T and the i9-9900T being the best compatible processors.

 

You can also upgrade your RAM with 2x16GB of DDR4, PC4-21300, Non -ECC, SODIMM, dual-rank (2Rx8) 260-pin RAM sticks, such as 2x16GB Hynix HMA82GS6CJR8N-VK, and even 2x32GB such as Samsung M471A4G43MB1-CTD.

 

And last but not least, you can make an M.2 NVMe SSD as your primary (boot) drive, such as a Samsung 970 Evo Plus.

 

So, yes: your HP Pavillion All-in-one 24-xa0xxx is definitely upgradeable should you so choose.

 

Kind Regards,

Hi @carllux 

 

You should indicate your complete model because there are models that cannot be updated with the CPU that has the following motherboard.

HP Desktop PCs - motherboard specifications, Sintra A9 | Soporte HP®

@carllux,

 

As @resistencia mentioned, if your model 24-xa0xxx happens to be fitted with the "Sintra A9" motherboard with SSID: 84F0, that would indeed severely impact upgrade possibilities.

 

To find out what motherboard you got:

 

Please type in: system information in your lower Windows search bar, click on the System Information app, and look to the right of "BaseBoard Product".  If the alphanumerical number says "84EE" you're good to go with the upgrade steps I mentioned in my previous response, but if it says "84F0", you cannot upgrade your processor, and it would affect the RAM upgrade too: instead of 2400 MHz DDR4 SODIMM RAM, you're looking at 1866 MHz (PC4-14900) SODIMM RAM.  You would still have the option to use an M.2 NVMe SSD as your primary (boot) drive.

 

Kind Regards,
