HP computer upgrade, all the experts to help with some opinions

Refer to my 2 years ago, and now it's a little bit higher, and the configuration is cheaper.

It is recommended to add 2 memory strips of 1G800 or 667, and add a discrete graphics card PCI-E.

Can this still be upgraded? Change the CPU, motherboard, graphics card, power supply, the main thing has to be changed.

1, your machine has two slots, each supports 2G, a total of 4G, but the 32-bit system only supports it, it makes no sense for you to change to 4G, 2G is enough.

2. Your computer supports DDR2 800, you can add DDR800, but because you already have DDR2 667, DDR2 800 will work with frequency reduction, that is, down to DDR667, so it doesn't make sense for you to add it, if you want to change it, you can change it all DDR2 800, or it will be all DDR2 667, but don't worry, no matter which match you change to, it will work normally.

3, ECC memory means error correction memory, simply put, it has the function of finding errors and correcting errors, which is generally used in high-end desktop computer servers and graphics workstations, which will make the entire computer system more safe and stable when working. So it's normal for your memory to be non-ECC memory.

4. This motherboard does not support DDR3 memory.

5. You want to change the CPU, change to E8400, your current E2160 is 65nm process, E8400 is 45nm process, your current motherboard does not support E8400, so you have to change the motherboard.

6, changing the motherboard is almost equal to a full change, looking at your configuration, it is already a shotgun change, it seems to be a fortune, then your new motherboard will support DDR3, everything mentioned above has to be overturned.

7. The new configuration is P45 motherboard 2G DDR3 1600 memory Ӱ 9800GTX+

After so much hard work, there are 5 reward points.

Wouldn't it be possible for you to change a motherboard for such a simple thing? The memory should be able to support 4G, and a single maximum of 2G!You've spent so much money on upgrades, you might as well sell the old ones and replace them with new ones!

800+667 works, but 800 downclocks to 667This computer certainly doesn't support DDR3 memory!

Your computer supports 4G of RAM, and you can use it when you install it.

(1) G42 series machines have 2 memory slots, and a single machine supports up to 4G memory, and a total of up to 8G memory.

2) You can try to add a 4G to 6G memory on the basis of the original 2G, but if you want to form a memory dual channel, it is recommended that you use two memory modules with the same capacity, size and frequency specifications, as long as the compatibility of the memory you add is relatively good, the computer will automatically turn on the dual channel after you add the memory.

3) Remind you that G42 refers to a series, and there are many specific models of notebooks in this series, for example, the words like G42-398TX are specific models. The memory supported by this series of notebooks is generally DDR3 1066MHz or DDR3 1333MHz memory, for which specification of memory is standard when your notebook leaves the factory, it is recommended that you can provide the specific model of this notebook, and then we will help you query.

2. The maximum capacity of the hard disk tested before the G42 series notebook leaves the factory is 500GB 7200rpm or 750GB 5400rpm SATA hard disk, the specification is or (, you can consider using 500GB 7200rpm SATA hard disk, but the hard disk with 7mm serial port has not been tested.

3. There are no brand requirements for HP machines to upgrade memory and hard disks, and there may be incompatibilities when adding hardware. If you confirm that the original spare parts of the notebook cannot meet the existing work requirements and want to upgrade the spare parts, in order to ensure that the hardware can be used compatible, it is recommended that you try to contact the HP Care Pack Service Center to consult the upgrade. For information on whether the HP after-sales service station can help you install your own materials, it is recommended that you directly consult the staff there in advance** and inquire about the relevant costs at the same time.

4. In addition, due to the limitation of memory addressing in the 32bit system, only about 3G capacity can be used when installing 4G or higher capacity memory, so if the total capacity of the added memory reaches 4G or more, it is recommended that you use the 64bit system to identify more memory.

We hope you find the above reply helpful.

Mine is also 4411s, the configuration is basically the same as yours, I still bought it in 09, I don't think there is any need to change parts to upgrade, because there will not be much improvement. It would be better to optimize the system myself, and it should be fine to use it for another year or two, at least I can still play games like Live 2013. Besides, now the latest 4441s of HP's series is only sold for about 3500, and if you have the time and money to replace parts, it is better to buy a new one directly, and then sell the old second-hand one, it is estimated that it will not cost you a lot more money than changing parts!

Answer a question: dear, you'd better use 2G, 4G free can be installed. Otherwise, it will be a loss to buy it in the market (it is a very loss), the efficiency of the notebook is only so high, and it is detrimental to the life of the computer to speed up the operation of others.

On the contrary, laptops have the ability to self-tune the CPU, but it is the best, which can protect the life of the computer itself.

Dear, you'd better understand the performance indicators of notebooks, mainly including: word length, frequency, computing speed, memory capacity, and memory frequency.

The first is feasible and the second is of little significance.

First, the hardware that your laptop can usually upgrade is memory and hard disk. Memory and hard disk are important parts of the computer, and improving the memory and hard disk can help improve the performance of the system, but the speed of the machine will also be affected by factors such as the CPU, motherboard, system, etc., so it is not guaranteed to improve the overall performance of your machine.

1. Your machine supports DDR2 667MHz or 800MHz standard memory, with 2 memory slots, a single maximum support of 4G memory, a total of up to 8G memory.

As a reminder, as to whether your laptop comes with DDR2 667MHz or 800MHz memory as standard at the factory, you can check the machine's product number (similarly. ab2). If you need, you can provide the following product number, and then we will help you with the detailed inquiry.

2. The maximum hard disk capacity tested before the machine leaves the factory is 500GB 5400 rpm and 160GB 7200rpm SATA hard disk.

Remind you that if you go to a dealer to buy memory or hard drives, please consult the dealer directly for ** situation. It is recommended that you consult in advance about the return and exchange of memory if the memory compatibility is not good.
