    I'd really like to know if I can expect my 5920G to run a Penryn Mobile? there was a hint that there is a BIOS floating around, but my thread in the Acer forum seems to have died a quick death (no more replies, even after a couple bumps), so I'm hoping perhaps a more performance related forum may know or have something to say on this? :confused:

    Aspire 5920G can support penryn processors ,but it'll need processor micro code ID update (BIOS update)

    I'm also wait for BIOS update :)
