slevin7 56 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Hello, I'm wondering if my server could handle a new processor, since I still have an Intel Pentium G4560 in the system. I have always been happy with the little power it consumes. Since it has the Intel® HD Graphics 610 in it and I didn't want to install another GPU, I wanted to ask if an upgrade would be worth it. If so, which processor would be recommended? Thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neik 838 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 If I were you I would ask myself: 1. Is there any problem related to CPU? It yes, then go to 2., if not then no upgrade. 2. What is the problem (e.g. not possible to transcode stuff you need) and would a new CPU solve that issue? If yes, go to 3., if not no upgrade. 3. Is the problem worth to through the money at it? If yes, upgrade, if not, no upgrade. End. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, which processor would be recommended? Thanks a lot It depends on a number of things. What other Kaby Lake (7th gen) processors can your motherboard support? Would the best replacement you can get be enough of a jump in processing capacity? Are you running an OS that can easily handle a processor swap? Or did you mean a more comprehensive CPU/MB/RAM upgrade? Same questions plus a few more. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
