What CPU's can I upgrade to?

[Kelvinw929]

Hello,

I have an Acer Aspire X1430 desktop with an AMD E-350 duel core 1.6ghz CPU!

What CPU's will fit my mother board?

Any help would be much appreciated,

Thanks

That's a prebuilt - need to check with the manufacturer, they control the BIOS and what CPUs it will support 😉

There isn't much to upgrade in that socket as that cpu is a pretty old and entry level. Depending on your budget i would recommend getting a new motherboard and cpu. If your budget is around £90 (135$) i would recommend this http://www.dabs.com/products/asus-intel-super-value-bundle--includes-h81m-k--intel-celeron-g1840--corsair-4gb-ddr3-xms3-memory--asusintel-supervalue1-B8P8.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=ppc%20product%20search&utm_campaign=Components%20and%20Storage%20-%20Motherboards%20and%20Processors%20-%20Motherboards&gclid=Cj0KEQiAqK-zBRC2zaXc8MOiwfIBEiQAXPHrXs9E4fX6WVjonIL6mHbL2g0Bv-ql0vO2AgADTBUP0d8aAmLs8P8HAQ


This is a great budget build and if for some reason this link doesn't work it is a Intel celeron g1840 and an asus h81m-k
This will give you better performance and life span than upgrade your current cpu =)
