My girlfriend has upgraded her H/P to the MAX.From 30 gig
H/D to 160 gig,128 Ram to 512M.B. the max,put in a dvd
player.128M.B. video card,and so on.Problem is it's a 1.3
gig celeron with 100m/h front side bus.what is the
biggest processor we can install,and can we put in an P-4
2.5 gig.Or should we upgrade to a bigger front side
bus,that can handle DDR Ram which should be faster?
