• Pavilion 17-e020us: upgrade of processor on HP Pavilion e020us 17 with Core i3 - 3110M

  Hello

  I woud like to upgrade the processor in my HP Pavilion notebook e020us 17.  It currently has an Intel Core i3 processor - 3110 m dual-core clocked at 2.40 GHz.  I realize that upgrading the processor in my model means also I need a new motherboard and heatsink of heat, and I'm ready to replace the parts too.

  I'm looking for a quad-core processor that can run at more than 3 GHz (it's OK if the base frequency is less, so that it can Turbo / be overclocked to over 3 GHz).

  If it helps, I know that the current laptop processor TDP is 35W; When I'm upgrading, I'm looking to improve performance (I don't care if it lowers the battery life and uses more energy).  The laptop currently is not a battery (that it came with death), and it's the one he used: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-47WH-HP-Pavilion-PI06-14-E000-15-E000-710416-001-HSTNN-UB4N-Battery...  .  The reason why I mention this is that some new mobile processors, like this: http://ark.intel.com/products/88972/Intel-Core-i7-6920HQ-Processor-8M-Cache-up-to-3_80-GHz, consume more energy, but have better performance.  Can I get a processor like this one that consumes more energy, but is more powerful (that one would work?)?  If so, what other parts that would replace?

  If you need to know anything else about the specs of the laptop, you can find it here: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03782483.

  So, who's the best processor I can update that fits my needs (see the second paragraph), regardless of the cost?  What other components should I buy?  Links for what I need would be great!

  Thank you very much to all who have responded.

  Hello

  There is a list of CPUS to support for the series on page #2 of the Service Guide and Maintenance in the following link:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-17-notebook-PC-series/5375409/model/5395210/manuals

  Please don't ask why mw but go to page 85 to get the right for selected CPU part number and order of HP. The document also shows you how to replace the CPU.

  And if you ask my why, my answer: in many cases, we allowed HP part number, buyning also the chance to make it work is 50-50.

  I want to upgrade my processor, so what are my options .i think to upgrade to 3530MX-A8 OR A8-3550MX, but these processors have 45W tdp and my current processor TDP is 35W will this affect my laptop or not too, I want to know more choices for me. CPU upgradation will affect my hardware to portable computers in a negative way. ?

  for this I change my motherboard too?

  also I want to increase the ram of 6 GB. will it affect my computers cell phones overall performance?

  Link to g4-1303au of repair:

  Manual

  A8 - 3520M works and is the best that you can install.

  The new processor would go a little wamer you need to install carefully with a good thermal paste but other than that it is all upside. The system is designed to support this processor well. You can install up to 8 GB of RAM. DDR3-1333. I would setup a dual 4 GB module for optimal performance.

• Office Pavilion 500-281: upgrade of processor and graphics HP Pavilion 500-281

  I just bought this HP Pavilion 500-282 3/15/15.  I would like to upgrade from the intel hd graphics card 4400.  Also, I would say to install the I3 I5 4130.   How hard would that be? I upgrade the BIOS?  The power supply is 300 Watts.

  Thanks for any help you can give me.

  [Personal information]

  HERE IS THE SPEC PAGE for this unit.  It lists the processors i5 which will work with the motherboard, just scroll down.

  The intel hd graphics card 4400 is part of the processor but will be promoted to the Intel HD Graphics 4600 (GT2) with any of the i5 processors listed.  If more than one upgrade is necessary, you should know that food can be a problem and the graphical upgrade with Intel onboard graphics is somewhat a problem, too.  Be very sure, through research, that works in the motherboard video card to the study.

• HP Pavilion g6-1b39wm: upgrade the processors HP Pavilion g6-1b39wm

  Sorry if this question has been asked over and over.  Just could not get a clear answer from HP.

  I have a g6-1b39wm with processor AMD E350 Pavilion.  Seems to be a specialized processor designed for laptops.  Low watt, unusual design.

  I want to put a higher CPU speed on the Board, but am concerned that the existing card is designed for just this processor.  More specifically a chip dual core can be replaced with an image chip?

  Othe people were told to look at the service manual for the laptop and put one of the processors listed on the chessboard.   But my processor seems to be a different design than the other processors listed in the service manual.

  Question:

  1. a motherboard computer laptop start G6 designed for a dual core AMD E350 can support a quad core AMD Chip?

  2 how high a power draw can adapter Board?  (The E350 seems to draw only 18 watts)

  2. what chip generation AMD can be supported?  A6, A8?

  3 should. the graphic chipset match what the E350 has?

  Thank you

  Hello

  It uses "413-Ball BGA FT1" socket which means it is soldered to the motherboard so it is impossible to upgrade, unless you are really good with a soldering gun or buynig a new motherboard (= the new price of machine).

• HP pavilion dv6 6150em: upgrade of processor on HP Pavilion dv6 (6150em)

  Hello

  My wife who is emotionally connected to this laptop needs an upgrade, and even so it is easy and very likely cheaper to buy the new laptop, we should improve as much it can.

  So it has already 8 GB of memory so that part is ok. I'm looking for the Bay for SSD drive as a replacement for the DVD player and last thing upgrade processor (current: i3 - 2310M).

  I've looked everywhere to try to know what other processors that support the model, but I wasn't that successful

  Basically, my question is what processors that support for portable computers and what is top of page processor that I can put in this model of laptop.

  Thanks in advance!

  You will certainly need the maintenance manual:

  Manual

  Your motherboard only supports dual core, not the Quad core processors and it is the fastest dual core compaptible:

  (Turbo SC up to 3.40 GHz) processor, Intel Core i7 - 2620 M 2.70 GHz (4, 0 - MB L3 cache, dual core, 35 W)

  Not too cheap:

  BTW, do not put an SSD in an optical drive to the hard drive adapter. The interface is slower and the reader will not be bootable. Put the SSD in the hard drive Bay and if you need more storage, then just put a standard mechanical drive into the optical drive adapter. This might work:

  Hi, as the topic I'm looking for information on upgrading my cpu of intel i3 - 2330 m to something more powerful which corresponds to my motherboard.

  All my research is based on maintenance and maintenance of manual g6 far. http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02968997.PDF

  I'd be happy if someone could answer some of my questions.

  1. do all processors listed on pages 23 and 24 are compatible with my motherboard (or bios)?

  2. If so - this means that location processor is compatible with the processor series mobile amd and intel? (sounds unlikely to me)

  3. what cpu would generally fit better lightweight casual games? I'm thinking the i7 - 2620M (or one of the albums i5s) or if the answer to question 2 is "Yes" - worst sage cpu but graphics wise better AMD A6 - 3400M?

  Looking forward to some responses, RacA

  Hello:

  1. all processors intel are compatible up to i7 2620 Mr. your Council to support only integrated graphics system - which is provided by Intel.

  2. only the Intel.

  3 Intel Core i7 2620 M has only integrated graphics card. No graphics chip dedicated to your room. So for the play of light, your current processor is good enough for i7 2620 M and two i3 2330 M has integrated graphics card Intel HD 3000.

  The overall system performance might be slightly increased with i7 2620 M.

• HP pavilion dv7 1260us: upgrade memory and processor for hp pavilion dv7 1260us

  I was wondering if possible to upgrade my memory and processor... hp pavilion dv7 1260us?

  Here are the specs:

  Plug

  You have an AMD Turion RM-74 processor and 4 GB of RAM. The RAM is DDR2 and it may take 8 GB of DDR2, but that the memory of any reputable vendor is crazy expensive, like $150 ++ for 2 x 4 gig modules.

  Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  The top of the page compatible processor is an AMD Turion™ Ultra Dual-Core 35W ZM-86 2.40 GHz with 2 MB of L2 cache

  If you want to go from 2.2 ghz to 1 meg to 2.4 ghz with 2 MB of L2 cache L2 cache, may be a treatment of 20% energy improvement. Not enough, IMO, to justify the difficulty because it is still not in the ballpark of machines of today.

  You can buy the processor from a dealer renowned for $15 with free shipping. That should tell you what the demand is for her. Basically obsolete.

  I replaced motherboards in several series dv7-1000, and it is one of the harder to take apart laptops. Many cables in strange tablecloth and Remora in all directions.

• HP Pavilion dv7-4150er upgrade complete. Issue of processor and HARD drive

  Hello. Sorry for my English. I'm from the Ukraine.

  I want to improve my HP Pavilion dv7-4150er and I need advice from experienced people.

  Now, I have:

  -8 GB of RAM (2 x 4 GB),

  -1 TB of HDD (5400 RPM)

  -stock video (Mobility Radeon hd 5650 graphics card) card overclocked to 700 MHz GPU and 950 MHz Vram.

  -CPU (mobile Quad Core Intel Core i7-720QM, 1716 MHz) in stock

  -BIOS F.29

  2 problems:

  -Slow CPU

  -Slow HARD drive

  I want to buy a few HARD drives SSD for Windows and secondary soft and left for the data.

  Get an increase in the performance of the system?

  On the 'Intel' site, I read that my

  Intel® HM55 Express Chipset Mobile

  is compatible with the more powerful processors. LINK

  And I have a great opportunity to buy Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13 GHz)

  But the laptop manual says:

  720QM and 940xm - identical processors. The difference in 'MAX TDP' 45w/55w, 'Cache' 6 mb / 8 mb and clock speed 1.6 GHz/2.13 GHz

  The Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13) will work properly in my laptop?

  or not?

  I have read many articles on this topic, but the answer is not...

  And I can't find information on HP F.29 BIOS specification.

  How can I increase a CPU nested way (with another compatible processor) perfomance if 940xm is not compatible?

  Help me please.

  Thank you for your time.

  Hello nickiblackmore.  I understand that you are curious about the upgrade of your laptop.

  Here is a link to Guide of Service and Maintenance of your laptop.  It covers the disassembly of the laptop and can also show you how to replace parts if you upgrade the.

  If you switch to a Solid State Drive of a standard 5400 or 7200 RPM hard drive, you should see a significant performance increase.  This is because a normal hard drive spinning platters and it takes time to locate data on the trays as they are moving.  A Solid State Drive has no moving parts and therefor can locate data much more quickly.

  A CPU upgrade is a much more difficult question.  HP does not recommend that you perform this type of upgrade.  Laptops are generally designed with specific thermal and electrical needs.  If you change the CPU, it will probably create more heat and use a higher power that will cause you problems.  However, if you stick to a processor that is listed in the service (for example in your picture) Guide, you should be fine.  For example, you can choose one of the microprocessors found in the image to upgrade your laptop.  Also, keep in mind that the integral part upgrade as a CPU can affect your warranty (check your warranty here).

  If you think that answers your question be sure to mark the post as solved.  This makes it easier for others to find answers to their questions.

  Have a great day!

• HP Pavilion dv7-3170ez: volume indicator not showing when the volume control

  Hello

  I own a Pavilion dv7-3170ez and when I change the volume using the slider button in the volume on top of the keyboard, the volume is adjusted accordingly, but no volume indicator appears on the display.

  Previously, when you adjust the volume, a speaker icon with a cursor jumped in the middle of the screen showing the current volume level.

  I use Windows 7 Home Premium and Windows Update and HP update shows that I have the latest version of the software. Also, I have the latest version of the BIOS installed.

  Note: the touch buttons on top (volume, speaker and enable wireless, etc) stopped working a few days after the disappearance of the sound meter, I have fixed that by connecting battery power and disconnectiong for awhile. However, the indicator is still not displayed. Don't know if this is related (I guess not).

  Thank you

  The Volume OSD is a HP MediaSmart Menu function. He has to load at startup. To do this, go to msconfig and make sure that it is enabled under the Startup tab...

• Pavilion dv7-6b56nr: HP Pavilion dv7-6b56nr Entertainment Notebook PC processor Upgrade?

  I the Pavilion dv7-6b56nr notebook and want to upgrade the processor and the video.  In the research forums, I found this guide Maintenance and maintenance for dv7 series machines: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03043778

  My machine has currently a processor 2.30 GHz AMD A6 - 3400M (1.40 GHz FSB, 4, 0 - MB L2 cache, quad core, 35 W)

  My question is:

  I read the service correctly guide in can I switch to a processor 2.70 GHz AMD A8-3550MX (2.00 GHz FSB, 4, 0 - MB L2 cache, quad core, 45 W)?

  Combined, the machine automatically provides the necessary 45W for the new piece as opposed to the 35W uses the current chip?

  The motherboard will support the 45w processor, Yes. You may want to also consider a stronger but not absolutely necessary adapter.

• Upgrade the processor with AMD 10 - 4600M of HP Pavilion dv7-6101er (lz661ea) FS1 and FS1r2 taken

  Hello friends. I own HP Pavilion dv7-6101er (lz661ea) and I want to upgrade processor. Current processor is A6-3410MX and socket FS1 I want to replace for socket AMD A10-4600 M FS1r2. But I'm not shure will be new processor works in my notebook? I asked this question in support of the ADM, they said that the two CPU is compatible, but need software support in the bios of the specific laptop models. I can't put this question to the HP support because the time of free assistance of my model is over. Please ask - my notebook BIOS will support a new processor?

  All of what you have written - I understand that. But understanding and you - the replacement of the processor is necessary because the lack of performance. For a new book, I have no money. You are an employee of HP and can really help to ask someone of your colleagues who will know exactly to run the new AMD processors in my notebook. All my books have HP I have always helped the company - buy its products, help me and you now. I'm not pleading for much - just a concrete answer - will work or not?

  N° !! That's where you're wrong. I'm not an employee of HP.

  Very few of us here in the forums are employees of HP. Those who are, with few exceptions, are here volunteer their time to help the owners of HP products. It is a peer to peer forum, where the owners of HP products share their time and expertise, helping others who need assistance. We are here to help. We help voluntarily.

  There is no concrete answer on this. Sometimes an upgrade to a non supported CPU will work, but more often it will fail.  Read my previous posts. The risk of any currency you use in your country to buy the new processor is yours, not me, or HP.

  Here's a solid answer for you... Use a processor that is listed in the Service & maintenance Guide and your chances of success of upgrade will increase considerably.  I can't say that your upgrade success will be guaranteed because there's always the chance you can break something during the assembly/disassembly or not having knowledge of a critical assembly/disassembly procedure and inadvertently destroy your new processor.

  If you want a high-performance CPU and chipset in a laptop computer, then choose when making a purchase of laptop. Computer laptop/notebooks are not actually intended to be upgraded.

  I called and they gave me some numbers that was supposed to be compatible but they were processors intel.  I have an AMD Board.  It seemed really hard... Laughing out loud

  Thank you

  Hi @no_name ,
  
  Compatible processors are listed on Page 26 of this manual:
  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c03043778
  
  No manual overclocking can be done in most consumer laptops.
  You are currently automatically turbo thrust to 2.3 GHz processor.
