Need help with KT-133A Chipset CPU Upgrade

I'm new at this, so be patient with me. I need to get a CPU with a higher speed than the one in my son's computer now, it has to be 1.8GHz or higher. What do you recommend I order or do I need a whole new computer?? I'm not sure how old this one is since it was given to us by a friend.

Thanks.

I would buy new computer as the KT-133a is old in computer terms and could not play later games, etc.

What does your son use the computer for?

It depends on what the current CPU is. KT133A is the chipset, not the motherboard. We would need to know the make and model of the computer or motherboard to know what CPUs could be supported.
