So I have this HP computer that I would like to upgrade. It has a q6600 @ 2.4ghz. I am under the assumption I will need to change the mobo as the factory one is locked. I will probably have a friend or company do the overclocking but I want to see what this will cost first.
Do I just need to change the mobo?? If so what one should I go with, seen a few on newegg.ca just dont know what one is best.
Lastly I upgraded to 8gb ram, 64bit win 7, clean install. I was wondering if I do the overclock, with everything else done I need a new video card, should I bother spending on a big card like a 460gtx or just a decent card? What would be best card for this setup (just be some mmos on this pc, want to play tera and gw2 when they come out.)
Any help would be great!
