My first upgrade of processor. Dv6-3160ss
Hello
I have laptop DV6-3160ss with the Intel i3 370 m and I plan to update to i7
I read info on this processor but I want to be sure.
Can I put this i7-720QM or i7-840QM?
Where can I find the update of the BIOS for this processor?
I do this first, but I really need to do.
Hello:
Before your first upgrade of processor becomes your first unsuccessful processor upgrade, you can take a look at Chapter 3 pages, 22 and 23 of the repair.
http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02657339.PDF
Note that the quad core processors require a motherboard different than those with the dual core processors.
Chapter 1 provides a list of processors picked up, and with your current setup, I would say that the best you can do is the i5 - 580 m.

Hi all
My friend recently bought an i7-720qm processor used to upgrade hp pavilion dv6 2 1 5 0 US and I
summer giving a helping hand by making the upgrade.
Since the 10 Windows running Google Chrome used up to 70% of the processing of an i3 - 330 m power
processor, it seemed to be good upgrade to improve the performance of the laptop.
We checked that the new i7 processor is compatible with the laptop (it is listed as supported by the)
( interview guide , page 108), and the seller assured us he tested the CPU on some different
HP pavilion and it worked fine.
But when I replaced the processor with the i7 processor i3 and tried to boot up the laptop, only the LED lights
on the front and the setting of the power and volume buttons would light up periodically. The screen was black
All the time.
Thinking I might have made a mistake during the reassembly of the laptop I put the original i3 processor back in
and it starts fine.
I updated the BIOS of the F.1C version I found on the internet and once replaced the i3 with the i7 with the
same results - display off, flashes periodically LEDs. The BIOS updated smoothly, and the correct version is displayed in the main menu of the BIOS.
I am confused on what could be the problem with the upgrade, everything should work. Is there a BIOS update I have
missed, or the problem elsewhere?
Disassembly and reassembly are made with care, and we took care to avoid static electricity. All the rest
on the laptop works well - I am writing this post on the laptop in question with the original i3 processor in place.
Any help, advice or general guidelines as to what should be done would be really appreciated.
Thank you for your attention.
Hello:
The problem is that if you look in Chapter 3 of the manual, pp 22-23, there are maps of separate used for the dual core and quad core processors system.
In other words, you cannot install a quad core processor in a Board that originally had a dual core processor and vice versa.

upgrading HP Pavilion dv6-1260 Artist Edition dual core i7 processor
Hello.
Is it possible to put my laptop dual core
upgrading HP Pavilion dv6-1260 Artist Edition
to i7?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Andrey:
Accroding to the specifications of your laptop, it comes with a processor AMD Turion X 2 Ultra ZM - 85 Dual - Core Mobile, correct?
If this is the case, you can not put an Intel processor in a laptop computer with an AMD processor.
Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.
Support for AMD processors are listed in Chapter 1, page 1.
It would not be the time or the money to upgrade to one of the most numbered 2 processors as yours.

The UPGRADE of processor in NB520: of N550 at N2800
Hello everyone. This is my first post. My question is this:
I've a Toshiba NB520 netbook with an Intel Atom N550 processor. I would like to know if I can upgrade the processor * welding * a N2800. This is the same socket: BGA559.
I don't know if the BIOS or chipset would recognize the processor.Can you help me? Thank you!
Hello
To my knowledge the processors are not welded but "nested" which means that the processor is removable from the system board.
But this does not mean that the party must be exchanged/updated or changed.In most cases, the BIOS does not work with the replaced CPU which causes a malfunction of the machine. The other reason that could make this not recommended is the chipsets support.
However, support for chipsets can be checked on the Intel ARK Web site.But I m wondering why you want to upgrade the processor? The performance difference isn't important.
Of course, you'd get a faster processor, but the performance gain will be not noticeable.My advice: replace the HARD drive with a new SSD. It's much better choice to increase the performance of s for laptop.

Upgrading the processor on the Satellite U200
I have a PLUA0C U200-PT300E and I would like to upgrade the processor in it. I bought a T7200 processor on eBay since it was the most powerful available for laptops U200/U205 CPU. However, when I installed it, I came across a series of problems. First the fan would run at full speed and the computer would briefly have blue screen after Windows loading and then it could restart. He just kept this again and again. I ran MEMTEST because I wasn't too sure about what the issue was. The computer locked up during the test, and then I was unable to restart it. I replaced the processor with the an original T2300E, then the cimputer starts and ran perfectly.
Any ideas why this happened? Was the defective CPU? Both the U200 and U205 come with the Intel 945 GM Express chipset and I have the latest Toshiba BIOS for the U200/U205 (v 3.70) so it doesn't seem to be compatibility problems.
I wonder if it is the CPU that my own past experience if a CPU is not compatible with a chipset then the computer or the other does not start or it will give errors as soon as it publishes. However, this would be POST and would start to load Windows before it crashed.
I m didn't ask you with all these questions. Why you not a not post here until you have made the decision to upgrade CPU?
In any case, I think that the answer to your questions, you will find under http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm
Please read carefully what Toshiba guys talking about CPU upgrade. -
The upgrade chart/processor Intel on Satellite Pro M70
OK, let's go with my first assignment. I bought a Satellite Pro M70, a year ago. It has a graphics chip (intel gtl 950?), I just would like to know, if it is possible to install a graphics card, ati or nvidia.
Furthermore, is it possible to upgrade the processor? and what about warranty if the upgrade and installation of all this?
Here, I'm going with my first reply you ;)
No, it is not possible to s. The technology of the laptop is different as desktop computers and therefore you will not be able to update the graphics card.

P7 - 1010t cto Pavilion: upgrade of processor and RAM memory
I wonder if the upgrade to a faster processor and the RAM imcreassed will provide significant performance and practice
Yes, but you must consider a few things first.
RAM, if you currently have one slot of occupied RAM then add more RAM to fill all the slots does two things for you, it increase the bandwidth to access RAM and what is obvious, give you more memeory for your applications and reduce disk swapping. Increase the bandwidth for RAM access ceratinly will provide a performance gain just by itself.
Upgrade the processor is debatable and depends largely on what you use your PC for. If you simply run email and web browsing then probably an upgrade is useless, but if you run several CPU intensive tasks then a processor upgrade help. Processor intel celeron and pentium are core, i3 range are dual core and the i5 and i7 are four hearts. Simply the best kernels if you run intensive taks and i5 and i7 processors support the turbo boost, which means carrots redundant can kick in to increase the speed of these processors according to demand. Hyper-threading (with several processes running in parallel) is also supported by the i7 (maybe some processors i5 as well).

Satellite L310 - how to upgrade the processor?
Can I upgrade my processor?
How to upgrade processor T5750 to T8300?Hello
Many people ask the CPU upgrade, but the answer is always the same;
Update CPU is not really recommended and in most cases not possible for different reasons.
First, BIOS was not designed and tested with different processors.
Secondly, it depends on the chipset what CPU would be compatible.
Check the specifications of the chipset.Finally and above all, the laptop must be disassembled and it's tricky!
You could damage other parts and make more trouble. -

Presario product CQ57 # QE264UA #ABA... I know I'm probably beating a dead horse, as they are another message asking the same info, but I guess you could call this clarification. I'm looking to upgrade my processor which is currently an Intel Celeron Dual Core B800 @ 1.50 GHz. First of all, what I read am I was right assuming that the Intel Core processor will work in place the Celeron? I am opting to the processor Intel Core i5 2430M 1333 MHz if application permits. If not, is that I can use the Intel Pentium 2.20 GHz TJ85 B960, or are the two compatible? I thank you in advance for any response or any light you may be able to do about it.

You are welcome.
As the info, I provided you with all the necessary things clear & it would be the same as any member of the forum including HP Expert here suggests that you do.

I WANT TO UPGRADE MY PROCESSOR
Hello, pls I request to know the opportunity to upgrade my processor from APU AMD A6-3430MX with the graphics card HD Radeon (TM) for a processor A10, which will boost the strength of my games... is possible to buy only the processor of the A10 and replace on my A6 because the current processor supports not most of my gaming needs so that I have enough memory graphic video (1.5 GB Radeon). However, I want to also know the maximum amount of RAM, the computer can accommodate because currently I have 6 GB of RAM and I think to be upgraded to 8 GB. These changes will affect the computer negatively? or what? I think it is the best economic option for me rather than waiting to buy a bigger laptop with a superior processor... Games that require such high features include coming need to guard dogs, for speed rivals, Call of Duty ghost, next Hitman 6 and many others...

Equium P300-190 - Question about upgrading the processor
Hello
I just have a question for my CPU PC Toshiba laptop, I have a can of Equium P300-190 full to give model number if necessary the cpu is one supplied with the laptop.
My question is I want to upgrade the processor but do not know which would be the best option and there are limits with the BIOS, etc. on board.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Probably it is not known to you that upgrading the CPU is not officially supported by the manufacturers of portable.
The CPU upgrade is a tricky thing... the fact is that the CPU must be supported by chipset and BIOS.
Where a party would not support the new processor, the unit will not light.So even if you use a CPU that is supported by the chipset (Intel GM965) there is a risk that the BIOS could not support the new processor...
The laptop was equipped with processor Intel Pentium Dual-Core processor T2390 (Merom code name) probably the other CPU Intel Pentium Dual-Core family-owned would be compatible, but to be honest, you won't see a performance improvement...
So in my opinion it is not worth trying to upgrade the processor...
In my opinion, you need to replace the HARD drive with an SSD... in that case you will get the performance improvement...
