hello, i have a dell inspiron 620 with an i3-2120 cpu. i want to upgrade to an i5 or i7.
speccy says this is my motherboard - Dell Inc. 0GDG8Y
i dont know what i'm doing, but if its at all possible to upgrade i would like to.
i know laptops cpu's are soldered in, so i was wondering if mine might be?
i tried to look, but i couldn't even find the processor on my motherboard, as i dont know what i'm looking for.
sorry about the dumb question, i'm not good with computers, but i want to be able to make it run faster.
also, if anyone could give me any links to a good set of RAM, it states i can have 8gb max (2x4gb) but i always see stuff like 204-pin and 240-pin. and 1333 mhz, and 1600 mhz, and i don't know what my desktop can take.
i tried to watch a video about all this, put i just couldn't put the pieces together. the motherboard in the video didn't look like mine, and i didn't want to break anything.
