First off I have to give thanks for all the Toms Hardware forum provides, Ive learned so much from here its priceless.
My question is this: I had an HP a6400F with a E2200 2.2ghz chip I replaced the CPU with an E8400 3.0ghz and noticed a nice gain in performance, would replaceing the motherboard increase performance that is noticeable? Not just overclocking which I want to also learn more of but even just stock settings.
