hello, im a new tech enthusiast, and I really want to upgrade a hp pavilion pc i got in 2011. Since i have a very tight budget, there are a few things that i do not want to upgrade(however if u really think i should, just inform me) and that includes my psu, motherboard(ofc) and processor. The processor is extremely outdated, but I dont think its easy to find a cheap one that is compatible with my mobo and if its even worth the upgrade. enough talking heres my specs:
hp pavilion p6 2090d(64bit vers)
processor: intel pentium dual core g620 clocked at 2.6ghz.
socket type: lga 1151
graphics : integrated graphics - intel hd family(the shittiest part)
ram: 4gb ram DDR3-1333,Two 240-pin DDR3 DIMM sockets,, Supports PC3-10600 (DDR3-1333) Non-ECC memory only, unbuffered *Supports up to 8 GB on 64-bit systems
mobo: IPISB-CU (Carmel2)
full specs for mobo: http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docLocale=en_US&docId=emr_na-c02980014
psu: 300watts
Expansion Slots:
1 PCI Express x16
3 PCI Express x1
1 PCI Express Mini Card x1
full specs if needed: http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c02994902
things i really want to upgrade is to include a decent graphics card and ofc the ram to 8gb. Could u help me link a decent graphics card and ram stick(or any other part) that u think is great for this pc? my budget is $150-$200. Ive looked around alot for a cheap, low powered gpu and ive come across quite alot but dont know which one is the best for my pc. Things to take note includes my low powered psu and slow processor as i really dont want an overpowered gpu for it.
Thank you for reading and any help would mean so much to me. Thank you kind souls
