    Hello, I have a HP NX6110, it has a celeron m 370 1.5ghz processor in it now.

    I would like to upgrade it to a Duo Core. Is this possible.

    Thanks

    Pentium/Celeron M use a different socket. It is not possible to upgrade to C2D.

    Hi.

    while i dont know the limitations of you HP laptop.

    I upgraded my celron 420 1.6 533 to an coreduo T2050 1.6 533 as they use the same socket and pin-out.

    regards

    John.

    Yours is a Celeron M4x0 series, his is a Celeron M 3x0 series. The 4x0 series is Socket M, but the 3x0 series uses Socket 479 used for the Pentium M chips.

    The best thing you can upgrade to is a Pentium M 765.

    The T2400 uses Socket M.

    This socket business is confusing as crap. Like 478, 479, M and P all have 478 pins but the "dead" pins on the socket vary in location. And it doesn't help that Intel names all their Celerons... Celerons.
