HP Dc7900 Cmt
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

My Pc: 

PROCESSOR Intel Core 2 Duo 3.16 GHz

Motherboard: Hewlett-Packard 3032h (XU1 PROCESSOR)

RAM: 4gb (but will upgrade to 8 or 16gb)

 

I'm thinking of buying:

-EVGA GT 710 2GB DDR3 64bit Single Slot, Low Profile 02G-P3-2713-KR

 

But please leave other suggestions, thanks

Hi:

 

I put the AMD HD 6570 in mine. 

 

You can probably still get them in used but tested and working condition on eBay.

 

I'm not sure the GT 710 will work because that may require a more modern platform.

 

The HD 6570 is an older but more powerful card than the GT 710.

 

Regarding the memory...it is going to be very expensive to upgrade your PC's memory if you buy 4 GB memory modules.

 

It would actually be cheaper for you to buy an off lease 8000 Elite CMT and upgrade the memory on that, than to buy 4 x 4 GB memory modules for the dc7900.

Hi

I got the same Pc:

Intel core duo 2 E7500 2.93Ghz

2Gb ddr2 ram (upgrading to 8 Gb)

Win 7 32bits

Hawlett-packard 3032h MOBO

 

I was thinking maybe I should upgrade the CPU to a Q9650 core 2 quad 3.0 GHz and add the best Graphics card possible

Is the CPU upgrade worth it?

What is the best Graphics card I could use?

 

Thanks
