Hi.
First want to say it's great to be here, and it's my first post on Tom's hardware. Secondly, I'm Lithuanian, so don't be very mad if i'll do some grammar errors.
Now my problem:
I have my computer for 6-5 years now. 1.5 years ago, my motherboard, my graphics card, power supply was burned. (The technician told they were too old.) So he changed those parts that burned, but left my Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHZ processor. Now, one day I though: maybe my processor is getting too old too? So I checked the CPU's temperatures with Speed Fan:
The idle temperature while being in BIOS is 69 degrees Celsius!
So I need to change my CPU! SERIOUSLY! I'm have a budget of 70$ The best opinion I found was Intel Pentium Dual Core E6500 2.93 GHZ. But because I'm kinda new to this stuff, I want you to ask is my PC compatible with it. Also, is my integrated graphics card is integrated on my CPU or Motherboard? Sorry, for asking lame questions! I just don't know! Anyway, maybe you have other better recommendations? Is my Power supply compatible with Dual Core E6500?
