Aspire tc-605 upgrade advice?

[JeremyN]

I'm looking to upgrade my computer and would like to upgrade the CPU and RAM. I'm a little unsure what I can upgrade to with this motherboard. Can I choose any Intel LGA 1150 and DDR3? Or is there specific units you guys would suggest?

I should clarify, the computer is slow. So slow. I only use it for editing photos so I don't think a gpu will help... (gpu isn't used in the programs I use). I have uninstalled all non necessary programs, installed an SSD for the photo files, used Ccleaner and minimized any startup programs. But even then it's still very sluggish.

Yeah, I plan on doing that. Any DDR3 set will work?

theres every possibility it will have a proprietary power connector, so you wont be able to change psu without changing motherboard
