[SOLVED] hp 3500 pro mt upgrading advises...

[smarchand291]

Hi everyone !

I bought a used hp 3500 mt pro for
162$can and it's working so great!
with one ssd for C: running win7-64.
ssdsa2m160g2gn
and second drive is a internal sata
st3300831as.
video card is coming
AMD ATI Radeon HD 7450 2GB
from china,
and additional ram from Chicago
Samsung M378B5273DH0-CK0 4GB
PC3-12800 1600MHz DDR3
total = 162+41+20 223$

now I'm thinking about upgrading the
cpu but i'm not sure (i7 3770,2600 or 2600s).

minipcie, pci-e x1 (3 slots) available.
(I don't want a new sound card.)
hd cache ?
wifi/bt card ?
ssd replacement for the sata ?
(that would be great...)
any suggestion ?

thanks and regards
steph

p.s.:I will get vidcard BEFORE usps
mail. Ordered at the same time,
ram is from Chicago : )))
