    Hello folks,

    Been on the overclocking scene for quite a while now but this is my first foray into laptops. My questions is this- here is the current processor this laptop uses: http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=649649

    I would like to upgrade it to an AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-60. Does anyone know if this is possible? From what I can tell, the major difference is a 4W TDP increase, something I think it can handle. However, I could be totally off base with this. Can anyone help? There are plenty on ebay to be had relatively inexpensively, so it would be worth it to pick one up.

    Thanks!
