Area 51 - R2, processor upgrade Question

• Processor upgrade questions

  Hi all.

  (For a year or two), I have the HP Pavilion p7-1235 with is provided with processor A8-5500 and 7560 integrated graphics. I intend to add a discrete GPU to 7750 and a 500 Watt power supply. I use this desktop computer for everyday tasks, surf the web, etc. But I also play casual games on Steam. I also have the Sims 3 (base game) is installed.  The last time I played this game, fifiteen minutes at the level of the fan (I guess CPU) kicking on.  It also happened when I tried Roller Coaster Tycoon 3.

  Now I don't know if it of because the cpu is dusty or cannot handle these 2 games. According to the technical specifications of HP, I know I can upgrade the processor to an A10-5700 or A10 - 5800 k? It would give me better performance game-wise? Or just do the upgrade to graphical power and power would be sufficient? Also, when a processor upgrade, would I have to mess with the BIOS?

  http://h20565.www2.HP.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.page/public/KB/docDisplay/?sp4ts.Oid=5187022&SPF...

  Set to upgrade to an A10-5700 will provide that almost no improvement in the CPU of the tasks not related. Upgrading an A10 - 5800K provide a 5% improvement in CPU related tasks. Your best bet is too make sure all dirt and dust is collected inside the case, fans and heat sinks. Then install the GPU and PSU upgrades and monitor your computer for the fan kicks at the top. With the GPU load moved to the discreet graphics card, the APU (UC) should be less stressed.

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

• Pavilion 17-e020us: HP Pavilion 17-e020us card mother/processor upgrade Question

  Hello

  I think to upgrade the motherboard on my HP Pavilion PC 17 - e020us.  The manual (http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04069163.pdf) contains a list of supported processors, and I'm not sure that we choose.  The computer currently has a processor Intel Core i3 - 3110M with 10 64 - bit Windows.  I am deciding between the Intel Core i7-3632QM and the Intel Core i5 - 3230M processor (the processor TDP should be 35 w or I have to get a new power supply).  You can view a comparison between the two processors and the currently in the system here: http://ark.intel.com/compare/71670, 72056,65700.  Although the i7 has a lower base frequency, it has more hearts; the reverse is true for the i5.  Could you please tell me what CPU should I choose (I'll get the corresponding motherboard)?  Here are the main things I've done on the PC: web navigation on board or Chrome, using Microsoft Office and software development with Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 (which means that I often use of the Tablet and mobile emulators to test my application - it means also I need to compile quickly and be good with graphics rendering (for design applications/Games)).

  In addition, please could you me of those in the manual of the motherboard (34 in PDF of page, page is numbered 24 down to the left)?

  Thank you very much to all who have responded.

  Hello

  Normally we use the rule of 3 C to choose a processor. They are Cache, Core and clock. In this case, I'd choose processor 6 MB Cache. It also has more Core and clock is a little slower but a lot of applications, the slowdown factor is not processor but another factor, namely the HARD disk.

  Kind regards.

• G62 processor upgrade question

  Welcome to all!

  I know that this topic could be recycled a few times, but I have not found the answer to my question. If it is there, please let me know.

  I have a laptop with an Intel P6100 processor G62-b50SV. It's great and all, but I decided to upgrade the i3 - 370 M processor since I am fortunate to have two of them in my hands and I found out that it should be compatible with this decision.

  Opening the laptop and replacement of the processor was easy, but when I put it back together the screen remains black. The fan works, so is the hard drive, but nothing else happens.

  I tried to upgrade the BIOS, but it didn't work. Of course when I handed the P6100 everything works as if nothing had happened.

  Help, please. What I am doing wrong? I forgot something?

  Kind regards

  Marcin

  It seems that you have version 1.1 of the laptop. See Page 20 of the manual here:

  Repair manuals

  The i3-380 works with version 1.1, but the i3-370 works on the other version. Yes, they can be as finicky.

• CQ5110F processor upgrade question

  I bought this CQ5110F of Office Depot and have already contributed to the maximum of the RAM, upgraded to a corsair PSU and installed a Radeon HD 4850. Now, I want to upgrade the processor. I did some research but I want to make sure the processor I look is certainly compatible with my motherboard.

  My motherboard: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01701270

  The processor I am looking to buy is the AMD Phenom II X 4 945 3.0 GHz Socket AM3 95W Quad-core (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103696&cm_re=95w_phenom-_-19-103-696-_-Prod...

  Are they compatible? If they are not, can anyone suggest a good processor that is? Thanks to a bouquet.

  The "Socket AM3" CPU is not compatible with AM2 motherboards + without a BIOS upgrade.  There is no BIOS available for this purpose on the site.

  Given that your CPU is dual-core, the "Triple or Quad-core" CPU listed in the specs would be faster.  Here is a link to the "characteristics of the motherboard" for your computer:

  Hello

  I'm sure you have lots of experience with desktop computers, but the construction of portable computers is completely different. The unit for mobile notebooks hardware configuration has been designed as economy of space. Please don t get me wrong, but there is no way to do it yourself.
  It is very important that the CPU is connected to the motherboard using a permanent connection method.

• Satellite L750-201 - processor upgrade

  Hello

  In the last two weeks, I bought a brand new Satellite L750-201 (PSK6ME-026004EN) of PC World, the United Kingdom, which has an i3 - 380 M 2.53 Ghz with front side bus 1 066 Mhz.

  Compared to my Toshiba laptop 6 year, it is lightning fast and I am generally very happy with it, but after the purchase, I was appalled to see that the CPU is a first generation Intel and not 2nd generation like most others on sale.

  The i3 - 380 M is a trademark of Passmark CPU of 2337 and so the 6 GB of RAM is sufficient for my current needs, especially now I installed Ubuntu Linux in dual boot with Windows 7.

  In the future if I I want to upgrade the processor and almost wish I had held out for an i5.

  Question: What are my options for upgrading the processor? Specifications of the motherboard obviously comes into play here.

  I would like a lot of techniques of information that you can give me because I am a software engineer with some knowledge/experience of the material.

  Thank you in advance.

  > Question: what are my options for upgrading the processor? Specifications of the motherboard obviously comes into play here.

  Upgrading the CPU may be possible, but you must use the CPU that is supported by the chipset of the motherboard.

  But there would still be a question about the BIOS, no one can say that if the new processor would be proccessed by BIOS and in the worst cases the laptop would not stable after upgrading from CPU

• Satellite L670-134 - CPU upgrade question

  Hello

  I would like to upgrade my old laptop for 5 years, due to the memory... I have now changed and a hard drive SSD added (500 GB) and a new battery but I want more: processor... I read on the Internet that it is but we need to its manufacturer which processors are asking for the appropriate device and I want to do with it what better processor I could use in my good old laptop purely build the perfect works with all components.

  Of more the graphics chip (if possible), but...

  What would be the best processor upgrade for my

  Compaq Presario SR5412NL desktop PC

  It's running windows vista 32 bit, I'll upgrade my memory to 4 GB.

  I use the most for Photoshop/Illustrator pc it seems to slow my pc down when I use these programs simultaneous.

  And would it be another option to run these programs from an ssd instead of the HD that make a difference?

  You are the very welcome, Suzan.

  I would say that the safe bet for the best processor the E7400.

  Your PC was introduced in March 2008.

  I fear the E7500 and E7600 that came out in 2009, will not be managed because I can't update the BIOS of your PC that adds support for the latest processors.

• Satellite A200 - 23Q - issue processor upgrade

  Hello, I am from Greece, and I'm new here, I know im newbe...

  I have toshiba Satellite A200 - 23q (motherboard: intel gm965, cpu: t5550 (1, 8 GHz))...

  Currently, I bought Intel T7500 (2, 2 GHz)...
  Can I upgrade this laptop with this processor? What can the BIOS I've updated to?

  Sorry for my language faults...

  Thank you...

  Hello

  Generally, the upgrade of the CPU is not advisable.
  Firstly the BIOS that has been developed for this device has not been tested with different processors, and in the worst case the BIOS won't be compatible with the new processor.

  The Chipset must support this CPU;
  http://www.Intel.com/assets/PDF/datasheet/316273.PDF

  Chapter 1.1.1 processor support:
  The chipset supports processors Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile 533 Mhz and 800 Mhz FSB support.

  Processor Intel® Core 2 Duo T7500 supports 800 MHz FSB, so it should be supprted by the chipset.

  But once again; There are other reasons why upgrading the CPU doesn't have to be done;
  The BIOS is one of the reasons.
  The second reason is the higher heat dissipation which would be created by CPU more strong that could affect the functionality of the laptop as well.

• G70-80 processor upgrade

  Hello

  I was wondering what are my options to upgrade the processor. I have the 5020u 2.2 g. I3 I already have up to 16 GB RAM.

  Thank you

  Good day and welcome to the community.

  BGA denotes Ball Grid Array, a chip welded. If the CPU was socketed, it would probably be designated as PGA: Pin Grid Array.

  A welded processor is supported by looking at the HMM: https://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles_pub/lenovo_g_z_70_series_hmm.pdf where there is no specific CPU removal / installation instructions and the parts section lists cards system with CPU specific configurations.

  Hope this helps to clarify.

  Kind regards.

• p6654y: processor upgrade

  I have a desktop HP Pavilion p6654y 6000 Series.  I wanted to upgrade the image to 6 core processor...

  I understand that AMD Phenom II X 6 Six-Core (core Thuban) 10xxT is what the list says for updates, but I found a 6 processor that I wondered if it would work. It is not this but Thuban.

  (AMD Phenom II X 6 1090 t. Black Edition 3.2GHz/3.6GHz Turbo Six Core HDT90ZFBK6DGR)

  The specs are exactly the same, but it isn't Thuban.

  I've already updated the power supply to a 400 Watt power supply. Which wouldn't be a problem.

  Thanks for any help!
