    I ordered a different CPU this had a Celeron Dual Core I Ordered an I5 2340M My Question is two actually;

    1: Do all of the h65 Probooks have the same motherboard so this can take any G2 pga988b CPU even the Quad i7.


    2 Do I need something keep it cooler will it create more heat I have AS5 and PK3 to put in the CPU tomorrow when it gets here, any tips? I already upgraded the memory to 8GB had to get a new battery for it already BTW I got it used cheap! I also read there seems to be battery problems with this series.

    This is the very first Laptop I have ever owned except one Aspire On Atom that someone left at my House after a party and never came to claim it so I have no idea who it belonged to junk anyway I am a Desktop guy all the way just Upgrading this to sell it really and do not want anyone coming back to me saying it does not work right.

    I also got a Dell Studio given to me Which I will sell or keep since It has a lot more to offer for my uses like a second hard drive bay and a huge screen It is heavy but that will not bother me I won`t be taking it with me too often.

    Thanks

    EDIT: such a friendly Forum guess either misinformed people here or just do not want to help 80 views and 9 replies??? I guess I know where not to go for answers
