Pavilion Slimline s7310n
Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit)

Greetings,

 

I would like if someone can help me with this:

I found at home an old HP Pavilion Slimline s7310n and I am trying to restore and upgrade it, alredy installed 4GBs of RAM, Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (32bits) and works fine. Now I'm trying to upgrade its CPU and installing a Video card (GPU).

My Question is which CPU and GPU is the MAX this pc  motherboard can support without having a bottleneck when processing the data specially from the GPU.

 

Here are some Specs from the PC:

* CPU:  CeleronM 370 (D) 1.5 GHz Socket 479

* Motherboard:  ASUS PTGV-DM (Onyx2-GL8E)

* Chipset:  Intel 915GV 

* 400 MHz front side bus

* 4GB RAM DDR2

* Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (32bits)

 

I would really appreciate any help on this, thanks in advance,

P.S.: Is my first time trying to reemsambling and upgrading an old pc, I am not an expert in the matter. 🙂

@JerryM2,

As that unit does not have a PCIE GPU slot (it only has PCI) it's not going to be a candidate for upgrades.
