@Angeloboy,

Welcome to our HP community forum!

The three best i7-Core processor upgrades that I would recommend (from least expensive to most expensive) for your HP ProDesk 600 G1 DM (SSID: Hewlett-Packard 21D0) with eBay purchase options are:

i7-4765T (4-Cores, 8-Threads, 2.00 GHz up to 3.00 GHz, TDP: 35-watt)

i7-4770T (4-Cores, 8-Threads, 2.50 GHz up to 3.70 GHz, TDP: 45-watt)

i7-4790T (4-Cores, 8-Threads, 2.70 GHz up to 3.90 GHz, TDP: 45-watt)

Thanks for the speedy reply. Is a i5 ok to use? I found one for 14.00 I am going to be working from home and not editing videos or gaming... 

I have a Macbook pro that needs repair and picked up this HP mini desktop for 50.00 and dont want to invest a lot into it. I'm running 16gn of ram now and trying not to break the bank.

I appreciate you and your time..

This is the one I found...

Intel Core i5-3470 3.20GHz Quad-Core 6MB LGA 1155 CPU P/N: SR0T8

@Angeloboy,

Yes, of course, an i5-Core processor would be OK to use, as long as you choose a "T" version, such as the i5-4460T, i5-4570T, i5-4590T, i5-4670T, i5-4765T.

Oh The one I found dose not have a "T" on the discerption..

If I may ask what dose the "T" stand for and do?

[NonSequitur777]

@Angeloboy,

An i5-3470 has a whopping 77-watt TDP (Total Design Power), and that would not work on a Desktop Mini (DM), which is restricted to 35/45-watt "T" processors.

Thank you very much!

Have a great day.

@Angeloboy,

In addition, an i5-3470 has an LGA 1155 socket, whereas your DM has an LGA 1150 socket, meaning, an i5-3470 is not compatible at all with your DM.

Would this one work for me?

INTEL CORE I3-4170T 3.20GHZ ST1TC LGA1150 CPU PROCESSOR

Thanks again for helping me out...
