Just wanted to ask If I could upgrade my CPU. I'm currently using the Intel Celeron CPU J3060. And If I can, to which one could I upgrade to? Thank you.IMG_7447.JPG

You're very welcome.

 

You can upgrade the memory from 8 to 16 GB as shown in the link I posted above, and what is not shown, is you can replace the mechanical hard drive with a better performing, normally more reliable solid state drive (SSD).

 

With a SSD you would need to buy a 3.5" to 2.5 inch adapter tray so the SSD will fit where the hard drive is now.

 

SSD's are pretty reasonably priced at the 500 GB size.  When you get to the 1 TB size they will go for over 100 quid.

 

Below is the link to the Crucial memory/SSD report for your model PC.

The MX model SSD's have faster read/write speeds than the BX models do.
