I'm trying to upgrade a work computer, it's used as basically the computer for the whole place, running music (just spotify), report generation, spreadsheets, etc. They've beeb complaining of really slow executions, you can feel it even just in general use like chrome.
Its currently rocking:
Pentium J3170 (BGA)
HP 821D Mobo (with 2 DDR3 ram slots up to 1600Mhz)
4GB of 1600Mhz DDR3 (1 stick)
A couple of SATA III HDDs, and other peripherals. I'm gonna open it up and give it a clean, fresh install the OS and programs and such, but I'm wondering if theres anything I can upgrade (most likely RAM) before having to just buy a new setup?
And based off those parts, are there any obvious bottlenecks? I've never really worked with lower end stuff like this.
TIA
