You will probably struggle to find many Socket 370 CPUs these days, the socket wasn't around for very long so there's not much of an upgrade to be got from it and it became obsolete 7 years ago. RAM you can certainly upgrade though, just make sure it's the same type as you have now.

megahertz is million cycles per second & gigahertz is billion cycles per second. which is more, million dollars or billion dollars? as long as new ram is compatible with motherboard then yes.

A relatively cheap processor these days for 80 dollars will be equivalent to two CPUs, both of which are more than triple the speed of the fastest P3 ever made.

the highest speed for socket 370 is 1.3 or 1.4ghz. not certain will work on that board as supposedly can only be 766mhz.
