I have a dell inspiron 545 with the following specs:
Pentium Dual Core 2.7Ghz
RAM: 6GB
Display: Card name: Intel(R) G33/G31 Express Chipset Family
Manufacturer: Intel Corporation
Chip type: Intel(R) GMA 3100
DAC type: Internal
Device Key: Enum\PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_29C2&SUBSYS_02E01028&REV_02
Display Memory: 256 MB
Dedicated Memory: 0 MB
Shared Memory: 256 MB
Current Mode: 1920 x 1200 (32 bit) (59Hz)
Rest of the stuff is standard lan/audio etc.
======
Purpose/functionality:
I use this m/c primarily to work on audio and photography large format files.
Questions:
1. I would like to upgrade this to a Intel i7 processor with 32GB RAM.
Can some one suggest a good motherboard that will accomodate in the dell inspiron 545 case?
2. I am concerned that my power supply may also need to be boosted. Is that true? If so what are the recommendations?
Thank you for your help!
