a)Can my existing system be upgraded to i5/i7? As said earlier , I would be using mainly for programming and rarely for gaming. If it is not possible to upgrade then I have no option but to sell this one and to assemble a new system fully. But the new system should be upgradable(4gb to 8gb upgrade, etc)
b)Can you tell me the price as I am in Bangalore. Also recommend a place to buy.I usually buy from computer warehouse on m.g road. I request kind co-operation of members. Pls help.
