  • 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 L850 - 1 P 9 - issue processor upgrade

    Hello world!

    I am the owner of a satellite L850-1 p 9 and I would like to change the real processor (i5 3230 m) with a 3612qm of 3540 m or i7 i7 and I wonder if compatibility problems can be...

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    A new processor might work properly only if the chipset and BIOS offers essential support.

    So even if the new processor would be compatible with the chipset which is available on the motherboard, BIOS can cause problems. But that's just a guess

    Of course, there is a good chance to get a new CPU if most hardware specifications (outlet, etc.) are similar to the previous CPU.

    But to be honest, an upgrade of the CPU would not provide a significant performance gain. Of course you would get a faster processor, but the difference in performance isn't important.

    In my opinion, you should use the current CPU but should move the HARD drive to SSD drive.
    These updates the SSD is much better and you will not encounter the risk of damaging the laptop.

  • Pavilion 15-g004AU: processor upgrade

My processor is 1 GHz, but it is not enough to manage my work, so I would like to know if it is possible to upgrade this kind of model of HP laptop? If so, then how much it will cost to upgrade to 2 Ghz in India? And also I would like to know the lowest cost that my budget is very limited. Thank you.

    You have the AMD E1-2100 processor, which is extremely low. Here is the Manual:

    Manual

    See page 17-18. See the list of system boards? There is a different for each processor. This means that the CPU is soldered to the motherboard. You need to replace the whole motherboard to get a faster processor. The minimum that you can get that has a clock speed of 2.0 ghz is this one:

    Processor AMD A6-6310 and UMA graphics 764262-501 (support Windows 8.1 standard).

    Cannot say at the moment. Perhaps in the future a faster processor will be compatible but if you want a portable powerful, do not buy a sleekbook or similar models. Buy a dv6 envy or a same type of laptop.

  • My laptop will be faster with Windows 10

    My laptop will be faster with Windows 10

    I have two systems side by side, we have Windows 7 with a number of applications that run at startup. The computer Windows 10 is installed on a PC equipped with almost identical and same processor but not the installed applications (clean install).

    If I turn on both computers at the same time, the loading time of Windows 7 and Windows 10 (allowing the time it takes for the password entry) is almost identical with 7 being a bit slow due to the applications and anti-virus software that it should load on startup.

    If speed is a concern consider upgrading a hard drive (HDD) to a Solid State Drive (SSD). An SSD will significantly improve performance.

  • Get the best out of Satellite 1900-803 processor / upgrade possible?

    Hi all

    Well, this forum has been great for me up to now, thanks JohnnyS!

    I was wondering if there might be someone out there who can help me with the following problem:

    When I right click on "My computer" (current running winXPpro) I can't see what follows.

    line 1 * Intel (r)
    line 2 * Pentium (r) 4 CPU 1.70 Ghz
    line 3 * 1.69 Ghz, 768 MB RAM

    I guess that the two readings of the CPU speed indicates the maximum speed of the processor (* line 2 *) followed by the actual speed (* line 3 *). If this is the case, can I shake the extra 0.1 Ghz out of it, it is better to it and if the answer to each of these questions is 'yes' then how do I do it?

    Secondly, if I wanted to update (/ replace with a slightly faster) processor would be possible?
    So how high I can go and where I could get such a thing? Should I be careful?

    A big thank you to you experts helping beginners all out.

    Hi friend

    How you´re? Good hope, today I give you another clue (which, I hope, could perhaps help you... or not ;)))

    Your CPU is already underway to * 1.70* Ghz but windows often displays with a few mhz more or less. If you want to know if your CPU is really clocked 1.70 Ghz then download 'CPU - Z', which is a good reliable tool measures on the CPU.

    There should also be a tool that shows the frequency of the processor in real time and you'll see that the frequency of the processor performs constantly at 1.70 Ghz, it s more like a clock generator (which is a CPU) who will * autour * 1.70 Ghz.

    Surely, you can try to upgrade, but here in this forum person won't give you instructions or advice. If you want to know what capabilities can check which chipset is installed, and with these specifications, you should be able to know what CPU probably would take it or not. Research a little bit is never bad ;)

    Here´s a useful link (I hope) for you: http://www.irisvista.com/tech/

    Otherwise, my advice is to 'never change a market system'

  • The question processor upgrade

    OK so I have a Presario SR1920NX I upgraded to 2 GB of ram and put to update to windows 7 but here's the question... I currently have 2.2 GHx processor and I feel its not quite worth more so I decided to upgrade, but basically, each processor I looked for my pc requires an update of the Bios ok no biggie execpt theres no bios update for my pc running windows 7 so I would be nice to upgrade without bios or would I need to go back to xp update of the BIOS, and then reinstall windows 7?

    Here are the specifications of your desktop Compaq Presario SR1920NX. Previously, I had a Compaq SR1910NX and always use an HP a1632x, two use the same motherboard as your SR1920NX. My a1632x is a "Athlon 64 X 2 3800 + 2.0 GHz" which resembles your "Athlon 64 3500 + 2.2 GHz" except that he has two hearts. I upgraded to 4 GB of memory RAM and installed Windows 7 64-bit. The system works without a problem and partitions in the middle of the year of 5 years with a HP 512 MB HD6450 graphic card.

    Installation of 4 GB and a graphics card will help your system to feel faster and upgrade to a dual core Athlon 64 X 2 4800 + will help certainly... but the CPU is going to be hard to find and quite expensive, even on e - bay.

    BIOS version 3.11 is the last update of the BIOS and does not add processors higher than socket 939 X 2 4800 +. You will need to go back to XP to install the BIOS update, because it will not install on any other OS.

  • HP 15 Notebook P: laptop battery draining fast

    Laptop battery draining fast

    I bought a new HP laptop there are 5 mountains. I had completely satisfied on the battery life to this day. The battery died just 4-5 hours without plugged. But these days the 100% charged battery cannot give the power up to 2 hours at least. I'm not saying that my battery drain too quickly. Most of the people said that our battery can not come at least 5-10 minutes once plugged on. My battery is dischrging 1% / minute. Hope this will be resolved for me. Sorry for my bad English.

    Complaints about battery drain problems after upgrade to Windows 10 are everywhere on the web these days.  A lot of "try this" and "try" too.

    It's a problem complicated because of all the variables, but let's hope solutions are forthcoming.

    Is someone can please tell me that the new processor is compatible with the old machine?

    If Yes, what should I do to upgrade the processor.

    Thank you for the valuable and encouraged to respond.

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your model series.

    Can be found in Chapter 1, page 1-2 processors supported.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01035667.PDF

    It does not seem that you need to update the BIOS to install the T7200.

    There is an update that adds support for a Celeron processor.

  • Dimension 4700 choice of processor upgrade

    Hi all

    Need some advice on the processor upgrade choices for a Dimension 4700 with a Pentium 4. I mainly use this machine to launch Cubase 4.5, and an Emu Proteus system and I am running up to the limit of my titles and sampling. I can't go further than 12 titles and which includes three tracks 48 k samples simultaneously. It seems incredible, but it is not enough good my goals of recording. It seems that what I really need, is a Quad-Core or even an I7. On my budget, it will not happen. My budget is $ 400.00 and it grows. I realize that maybe these specifications do not support upgrading to even a Dual-Core, and even if I could how much difference I would hear and experience in Cubase and Proteus fact?

    What I would really like to get out of this system is a machine of 24 tracks with the same 48 k samples I need for serious recording, I'd settle for 8 simultaneous samples per song as well as 24 tracks.  Basically, it would be normal 16 pieces of Cubase VST over 8 tracks samples of Proteus.  What would rock!

    If a serious CPU upgrade is plausible, should I upgrade my CPU cooling fan and XP Home Pro? Is my only option a faster Pentium 4?

    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.
