    I just deleted 3 of your posts. Bumping is allowed only once every 24 hours. Please read the forum rules.

    And I also deleted your other thread. That is called cross-posting which is not allowed.

    the fastest cpu you can put in the inspiron 1720 is the x9000 but the best power to price ratio is the t9300 is what I've been told most of the time.

    If you have T7100, then it's likely your laptop uses Intel Mobile 965 Express chipset. So yes, upgrading to a T9300 or T9500 will work. My laptops use these kinds of configurations.

    These 45nm processors are the refresh models for Intel Mobile 965 Express series chipset, so be sure your laptop has already flashed with the latest BIOS before upgrading.
