In this educational video, I will be upgrading the HP 280 G1 MT TW desktop computer or PC.
The parts I will be upgrading are:
First, I am going to replace the one stick of RAM with a two of the same frequency RAM in total there will be 8GB DDR3 1600MHz and they will be running in dual channel.
I will add 120GB SSD for the operating system and leave the original 500GB of storage for documents.
I am going to add a budget graphics card from Zotac Synergy the Nvidia GeForce GT 610 2GB DDR3.
The finally replace and upgrade will be the processor from an Intel i3 4160 to an Intel i5 4570.
And finally install windows 10 pro operating system and drivers.
I also cleaned it up at the end, and now it looks almost new, it's a great feeling to save something and give it a new life.
I know it's not going to be a gaming PC, but it can work as an office or work PC for a few years to come without buying something expensive for somebody.
Thanks for watching and have an awesome day.
