Upgrading my old PC

[astewty]

So I have core 2 duo E7400, 4GB of RAM, and 500GB HDD. I planning to upgrade the CPU to core 2 quad Q9500, 8GB of RAM, and 240GB SSD. The motherboard I have right now is gigabyte GA-P41T-D3P, can I upgrade my cpu, ram, and storage to what i plan? or my motherboard cannot handle that?

I had a look at the CPU support list for the motherboard

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-P41T-D3P-rev-13/support#support-cpu

looks like the Q9500 is indeed on the list.

 

here is the specs for general support:

"up to 8GB" so if you have 64 bit windows you're good to go.

 

any old PC is good with an SSD as long as it has SATA. No worries there.
