    Toshiba Satellite a505-s6985 CPU/GPU Upgrades?

    Okay guys, looking to breathe a bit of life into my old system. The CPU in it currently is a core 2 duo T6600 @2.2ghz socket p (478) 45nm, anyone know what options i'd have moving up if any? AS for the gpu i'm sure that's far less likely so i'll leave that be unless someone knows otherwise.

    best water cooling for intel i7-4790k using a fractal design define r5 case

    If you wanted to really go that route (even though you can fit massive air coolers due to the width of this case) a corsair h110 fits very nicely inside the case.

    Fractal Design Define r5 fans connection

    The fan controller will take 3 fan connections. The rest depends on your mobo. You can also squeeze 2 on the bottom if your PSU isn't huge, and 3 on top in addition to the rear exhaust.

    Swapped PSUs, no post or power now.

    Update: So i got ahold of a speaker for my motherboard, and got into contact with asrock support. None of the steps produced any results so it's an rma boo :/. The odd thing was the heatsink fan would just nudge barely when i attached the 24pin connector and that's all boo.
