I have a vintage PC with a Pentium G620 running Windows 7 32-bit. Since I can't afford a new machine, I'm trying to upgrade it by adding 8 GB of RAM and possibly an older graphics card. However, because it's a 32-bit system, I'm limited to 4 GB of RAM. I saw on the product page that this CPU supports 64-bit, but I'm curious if upgrading to 64-bit was actually feasible. Any suggestions? Can I make this work?

A complete reinstall is assured.

With Windows 7, you can't directly upgrade, but create a bootable USB with Windows 10 and perform a clean installation. The complete system specifications aren't provided here.

Yes, you could do it without wiping everything.

No solution exists, just a clean start and fresh installation.
