Ihave the opportunity to keep my Pavilion All-in-one 24-r0xx with an Intel(R)-Core(TM) i5-7400TCPU (@2.4GHz)... but don't think its fast enough for my new gaming needs. First, is it even possible to upgrade just the processer in this computer? Everything else about it suits me perfectly (2TB space, 12G RAM, etc.)

**I've recently started gaming a lot but I get a "loading timeout" 3/4 of the time. I upgraded my internet speed to 50MBps down/10 up but that didn't help... then saw the minimum requirements for the game are a i5 SandyBridge, recommended is i7 Haswell (google says mine's slower than both).


I said keep earlier as it was my work's machine, but the office is closing and for $225 its mine, wiped clean with Windows 10 reinstalled - much cheaper than buying new! But if it can't be upgraded it may not be worth it. Must decide in 3 days - thanks for any help!


Here is the Product Specifications page. If you look at the section titled "Processor upgrade information" you will find a list of compatible processors. The only upgrade available is the i7-7700T. This would be a great upgrade.


There is another upgrade that you may want to consider. Adding a M.2, SSD, as your boot drive would increase boot speed and system performance. If you look at the Motherboard Specifications page, in the section titled "Expansion Slots", it states that in some models there is "One M.2 socket 3, 2280 type for SSD". I suggest that you make certain that this socket is available on your motherboard before ordering the M.2. Here is a video that should help you open the case:


I will never have another computer without a SSD boot drive. I like Samsung SSD's because they seem to work best with HP BIOS'es. Here is a HP Knowledge Base article to help you make the transition from the HDD to the SSD. In your situation, you would install the M.2 and install the cloning software on the HDD and run it. When it asks for the Target drive it would be the M.2. Once the HDD is cloned to the M.2, you will go into the BIOS/UEFI and set the M.2 to first boot.


The weakest link in your computer for gaming, once these upgrades are made, will be the Integrated Video. This is something that you will have to overcome by lowering the settings in some instances. The price that you will pay for the computer will far out weigh this problem.


What is the Product Number of the computer? I need this information to review the specifications of it. Please don't furnish the Serial # or other personal information. You can find the Product Number at the bottom of the page when you open HP Support Assistant.


It is difficult to give you correct information without the Product Number. There are numerous models in the series for your AIO. Here is a guide that may help you provide the information. I will help you when I have this information.


I don't want to spend a fortune on this machine but if a couple hundred bucks will help my game timeouts stop and load faster, I certainly will. For that, you feel it's processor first, then SSD... or viceversa?
