Can I update my CPU AMD p340 (Athlon II) on my Lenovo Edge 15 (code is 0302) with a better performance AMD as a 4 core, for example? Or in general a better AMD processor?
Thanks
Graphics card, hands down
need more info on the graphics card
ATI Radeon HD 4200
The graphic settings on games such as WOW and Crisis 2 do depend more on your graphics card rather than your processor speed :)
An AGP card functions as the computer's graphics processor.
Your processor isn't great, but it's O.K.; however, the Nvidia GeForce 210 is a relatively weak graphics card. If you plan on gaming or using visual software, you will need to upgrade that graphics card or else it will bottleneck your processor (This means that the graphics card will not be able to keep up with the processor and it will result in a glitchy and laggy visual experience). If you want to stick with Nvidia, I would recomend upgrading to the Nvidea GeForce GT 630 or better.
graphics processing unit
ATI Radeon 4670, 4650, 4550 or 4350
Compaq Presario SR1320NX is a very old computer launched in 2004. It has got an Asus K8S-LA motherboard. The motherboard has got SiS 760/964 chipset and socket is 754. Socket 754 supports athlon 64 and sempron 64 series processors. The Athlon II X2 family requires Socket AM2+ or Socket AM3. Recommended processors for your motherboard are AMD Athlon 64 3700+ processor (Clawhammer, 2.4 GHz), AMD Athlon 64 3400+ processor (Newcastle, 2.4 GHz) or AMD Sempron. The motherboard also comes with 1 AGPand 3 PCI expansion slots. GeForce 8400 GS requires a PCI Express x16 which is not present on the board. For upgrades it would be better to buy a new motherboard, processor and DDR3 RAM. rather than spending money on processor and graphics card for the old motherboard.
One can purchase an AMD Athlon 64 x2 4400 dual core processor at various computer hardware and department stores, including Canada Computers, Future Shop, Best Buy and Wal-Mart. One can also purchase this graphics card on Amazon and Ebay, provided that one would be willing to cover the shipping costs.
The short answer, is yes the graphics card is compatible with that motherboard / CPU configuration. Hope this helps be safe
Update your graphics card and processor. Adding RAM also helps. It may be easier to buy a new computer with a high-end graphics card and processor. There are many that are prebuilt (like Alienware) but the cheaper option would be to individually order all the parts (motherboard, processor, graphics card, RAM, etc.) and put it together by yourself.
