    I was thinking about upgrading the CPU and GFX on this baby.

    Is it possible? Which CPU/GFX is compatible with this notebook?

    Just the Core2Duo laptop socket P CPUs. The 2.8 and 3.06 being available on occasion. Just watch out for ES (Engineering Samples), eBay is full of them. Make sure you get genuine OEM.

    No Quads for the Bestbuy version.

    Cheers,
