What is the best GPU my old school Lenovo can upgrade to? In summary I have a 4gb ram Lenovo core 2 duo with integrated Q45/G43 graphics that I am really trying to upgrade to its full potential (as a project). Yes I know there are better computers out there but I'm really trying to find out how far I can upgrade this specific computer (or 4 of them actually; I got a good deal from a friend) PLEASE give me some suggestions for how to improve this computer (I've already upgraded the RAM from 2 to 4gb and upgraded to a 2tb HDD). I'm basically turning them into media players and for GoPro picture sorting/edits since I have tons of pics.
Here's the specs: (wish I knew how to post pics of my Speccy screenshots but I'm new to these forums sorry in advance)
