Chacnes are you can't because it's a name brand pc. You won't have all those options to overclock like you would a 3rd party motherboard.

Your HP won't just accept any mobo. Most likely will only accept HP boards, unless you've confirmed with HP that your computer uses a standard ATX/mATX board.

Of course, by putting in another HP board, you gain nothing. lol.

umm.. not enough, 120 bucks will do for MB,
40-50 bucks for PSU. you can use your current memory stick. maybe 40 bucks for new HSF.

sorry for double post, better buy new one, DO NOT buy branded PC. buy custom made, ask the gurus of computing.net to make you a new killer spec.

And no matter how much you overclock it (assuming you could)...a Celeron is just a Celeron, it'll never perform like a P4
