    Hi,

    I woudl like to upgrade my Acer Aspire 5515-5187 to AMD Phenom II X4 Quad-core 940 3GHz Processor. Will this work?

    I have looked all over the internet and found some CPU sthat work but I haven't been able to nil down what the best CPU to install.

    Will the one I found above, work? If not, does anyone know a better processor than Athlon 64 X2 Dualcore 4450B AM2 2.3GHz 1MB 65nm 45W 2000MHz Tray. I read on another forum that this one does work and people are using it.

    Like I said I would liek to buy the best one so I don't have to go through this again until I buy a new laptop.

    Thank you in advance!

    Eric
