    just get t9300 mobile cpu and you will be fine :) anything more is just overkill/costs more and only faster by 100mhz
    and will likely cook your laptop. i will refer you to this thread if you want to know more about cpu upgradeds
    its for the 6920 but the 6930 is jsut the same but larger screen and keyboard with numberpad.

    Code:

    as for the motherboard the aspire 6920/30 series all came with MXM II SLOT type cards so your nvidia card will work in a replacement board
    i hope this has helped you.
