The Ultimate CPU Guide

Hey, this hasn't been updated since 2008... Nothing new?

 

Because the pins do different things. Intel changed the pinout on purpose.

PGA478 = PGA (pin grid array, means the CPU has pins and is not soldered to the motherboard) + 478 (the number of pins).

 

Hi all,


Just simple question: is T5450 (1.67Ghz, 667MHzFSb, 2Mb L2 cache) 65nm socket P can be upgrade to T6400 (2.0Ghz, 800MhzFsb, 2Mb L2 cache) 45nm.

Thanks in advance all for your repsonse

It should work.

But it would depend on your BIOS.

I would give it a go.

 

Hi SQ,

According to these 2 Threads ... you should be able to ...

Intel Mobile Processor Compatibility Guide

Core 2 Duo notebook processor (CPU)

Hope this helps!

G!

 

Thanks all for your response:smile: I will try it for the next upgrade session.

 

You know what you need, right? The silver compound, being careful with static surfaces, etc. Just checking.

I upgraded my Yonah T2500 (Core Duo 2.0GHz, 2MB L2 cache) to a Merom T7600 (Core 2 Duo 2.33GHz, 4MB L2 cache) for the 64-bit architecture, and the additional speed. All Socket M.

Make sure your BIOS will let you. Otherwise, you may be able to modify it.

Have fun!

 

better to upgrade to a T9300 or T8000 series... they'll run cooler are 45 nm and anyways T6400 is and not much of an upgrade compared to ur stock...

 

Hello

I have an acer aspire 9410 with T2300 cpu
Intel 945 chipset and 4 gig pc5300 ram

I want to upgrade to a T7200.
Is this possible?
Is the socket from these 2 procerssors with pins or balls (Balls Get Action) ?

thank you

 

yes it should be as long as ur cpu is PGA(pins)... to confirm can u plz put screenshots of ur CPU-Z so we can confirm this. If this is the case , u can upgrade to T7200.

 

Yes, you can perform that upgrade. However, I'm not sure how Acer works as far as blocking hardware components by way of BIOS. For example, my T60p would not have accepted the T61/p's Intel 4965AGN card without a BIOS hack. However, the Atheros 11a/b/g/n was on the whitelist, and it just so happened that I much preferred the Atheros WiFi N card anyway.

I think you'll be alright with a CPU upgrade, though, but remember, it almost always voids any warranty that you may have left on your machine. If you do end up needing service, make sure you keep that original CPU around, so that you can swap it out for warranty purposes.

 

I was searching about CPU, and realised that is guide has not been updated in more than two years. If it's outdated, it should not be in the sticky as it does NOT help people searching for information.

3 years now...

 

tashiba satellite m65-s9062 Old I know. But I am looking to upgrade cpu from pentium m 740 to the 780. Is this machine bios locked ?I can find a used 780 on ebay for $60. I am increasing the ram from 1gb to 2gb(max allowed). Is there a bios hack/mod for this? My new lap top is a HP and I hate it. White list out the butt.

 

Hi i am new on here and would like to upgrade my acer 5315 what processor do i get .

how do i know what processor to look for also can i upgrade the graphics card??

Thanks for looking
