    Most like PM 45 but why would you want to go to T8300... its a old processor... You can use any P7000,8000 and 9000 series processor and any T9400/9600/9800/9900 processor... get T9600 ... its gives best price and performance...

    It has the nVIDIA GeForce 9200M GS dedicated graphics card, so it has the Intel PM45 chipset.

    The T8300 is a first-generation Penryn chip (2.4GHz, 800MHz FSB, 3mb L2) but it still provides performance almost identical to the newer P8400 (2.26GHz, 1066MHz FSB, 3mb L2). The T8300 may be easier to find and cheaper than a newer P-series model. It's still a very good processor.
