I was wondering if I could use some sea power to also aid empowering my GPU and the sea connects to this weird port on my motherboard, which I don’t know what is called. There are two square ports with 4 pins in them each

That machine can't take a C2Q with mine, but I found a HP Compaq 6000 SFF for $28 with the Q9400 CPU out of the box stock, just no hard drive. I am open to ditching the card and getting a card without this connector if it's truly a lost cause.

The machine shipped with a 256MB ATI Radeon HD 4550 HP OEM with DMS-59 :-(. Is it possible to find a good DMS-59 to HDMI or DP today, or is it just time to get a better card that better fits the Q9400?

GPU HP P/N for reference:
