    i recently purchased an Alienware Area 51 m5700 series laptop for extremely cheap. i am looking to upgrade the cpu to something stronger. Atleast a dual core, so that i can play WoW on it. anyone have any idea what i could go with or what is compatable? i currently have the celeron M 370 in it.
