I just bought an EeeBox PC EB1006, and I was think about making some tweaks to it.
My budget for the processor would be within $200-400 (US dollars), and a similar budget for the memory.
I was looking to replace the Intel Atom N270 (1.6 GHz) processor with an Intel Core i7-720QM Mobile Processor, and update the memory to accompany the processor change.
I am hoping to be able to use this for gaming, although not for extremely high-intensive games. More towards games like Battlefield Bad Company 2.
It comes with an ATI Radeon HD 4530.
I am not discriminate towards other brands for parts, it's just that I don't know that much about them (So far, I've been a simple consumer. Intel makes their name known).
I would be running Windows 7 64 bit on it.
I am open to buying from the TE forums, but I don't know how well shipping works going to the US.
More than anything, i would like to know if this setup would be viable. If not, then thanks for your time anyway.
