    Was wondering if Upgrading my CPU was possible on this shitty pc.

    AMD Quad-Core A6-3600 (2.1GHz), 8GB DDR3, 1TB HDD, AMD Radeon HD 6530D are my specs.

    HP Support document - HP Support Center - Full specs

    I have $200 to upgrade my CPU or Graphics card if possible, I don't care about an SSD right now.
    Just invest in a decent GPU and you can find a quadcore on ebay for your FM1 mobo they should be cheap as dirt right now

    but if you already have a quad get a gpu and overclock the apu your only shot at bring the performance up



    AMD A8 Series A8 3850 2 9 GHz Quad Core CPU Processor AD3850WNZ43GX Socket FM1 | eBay

    MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 TF Gaming 2GB GDDR5 2DVI HDMI Display | eBay


    Now if you upgrade the psu to 500w your good lol
