How do I upgrade my processor?
I'm not much of a hardware guy. What are the steps to upgrade a processor? Where do I start?

Upgrading cpu
find out what socket it is
find out what dpu goes in that sockek
find out what ram. bios, heat, and other factors will affect it
make sure psu is big enough
check the specs on the socket and cpu. then CHECK THEM AGAIN
find the best prices and find the return policy for a dead cpu
Buy it Build it

I know about the PSU. I need a PSU with enough watts to support the hardware, correct?
