So I have a hp compac 6200 pro sff pc and was looking through to upgrade it, not professional, but make the games and all run smoother than it is, I found a previous forum that said an MSI GEFORCE GTX 1050 TI graphics card would work, and I found one here (https://www.romantiea.com/msi-gefor...ress-30-x16-hdcp-ready-low-profile-video-card ) and then I found someone put a i5 2400 in it, mine currently has the intel pentium, which is pretty darn old from my understanding, I found that here (https://www.walmart.com/ip/intel-co...141017?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=1229 ) So are there any things I should be aware of when putting these in? and also for the procesor I found on my old one some gray dried paste (heat paste?) is that important, if so where can I get some?
