    Hi,
    is mobile CPU E8335 (2,93MHz, 1066FSB, 6M cach..) compatible with PM/GM45 chipset? After browsing google I draw an inference that it's compatible and I can change it for my P8600 (sony vaio fw). But I want 100% garantie :) so I'm asking you.
    Thanks in advance ;)

    I just read it ;)
    so I hope I don't have to worried about changing CPU in Sony Vaio FW for this one.

    yes, but E8135(SLGEB) and E8335(SLGEB) has "only" 35W, so it's ok.

    yeah, that's why I said most of them..
    too bad the top of the line (which is still really really cheaper!) is 44/55W

    Shouldn't matter that much if you undervolt it.

    I do wish there was one with an 800mhz FSB also. Even it it's 55W.

    are you sure the higher TDP cpus will ok?
    I just read the guy who got X9000 into his M1330
    do you think my/your laptop can handle X7900/X9000 ?? (don't mention the price, I'm just asking LOL)

    edit: I'm always thinking since my notebook model is not a mainstream model,
    the BIOS/ h/w would restrict the use of > 35W TDP processors

    Yes. No problem. The X7900 would be hot (since it's 65nm), but not too bad.
    I overclocked my T7300 to 2.7ghz @ 1.26V and it was 85C max.

    The X9000 should run almost as cool as your T9300.

    My T8100 @ 2.7ghz is only 70C max (intelburntest).

    The extreme CPUs are more highly binned so they should need less voltage to be stable, so the TDP is not really anything to worry about.

    I think the TDP given by intel is not 100% correct anyway. Just ask K-TRON.

    EDIT: I agree that the BIOS might be a problem...

    yeah I read that post that K-TRON wrote about.
    I just tought when starting up the first time the 45W cpus will draw more power than the notebook could handle, or if there's a blacklisting on the BIOS for certain cpu models..

    hmm... anyone knows the default voltages of extreme processors?

    edit: the voltage range of X9000 is actually pretty good: 1.062 - 1.150 V :D
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...2Penryn_XE.22_.28standard-voltage.2C_45_nm.29

    or is it 1.000V-1.275V ? (below)

    seeing the link from moral and ebay pages,
    There's a good chance it'll be fine
    if it's not working you can sell it back and grab another model

    u might have BIOS support problems... after all these E series are for apples... i would get a T9600 or another P9000 series CPU... T9600 is the way to go... it's cheaper than the other CPU's and should be a nice uprgade over P8600...
