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.

  • The R400 processor upgrade options

    I have an old Thinkpad R400 with a CPU T6570 currently and I think to be upgraded.

    He uses the Socket P so I thought to upgrade to an intel Q9100... Maybe even a QX9300.

    I know he's not in decision-making, my question tho is the bios motherboard will support any processors?

    y at - it might be a list somewhere what type of processors are supported? or perhaps are all Socket P processors supported?

  • The tiny processor upgrade M93p

    I am considering, for the most part just for fun, upgrading the processor in my tiny M93p Office. According to CPU World, the socket type is a decision 1150 / LGA1150 socket / Socket H3. My M93p currently has a processor Intel Core i5 - 4570T (http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Core_i5/Intel-Core%20i5-4570T.html), 2.9 GHz dual-core. I would like to put a processor quad-core in it, but I am concerned about the risk of increased energy and heat load.

    I'm looking for the following options to upgrade:

    i5 - 4690K (http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Core_i5/Intel-Core%20i5-4690K.html)

    i5 - 4570S (http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Core_i5/Intel-Core%20i5-4570S.html)

    I7 - 4785T (http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Core_i7/Intel-Core%20i7-4785T.html)

    I7 - 4790K (http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Core_i7/Intel-Core%20i7-4790K.html)

    As I said, my major concern is heat load and increased energy consumption. The power of my current processor thermal design (TDP) is 35 watts. The TDP of the CPUs I'm looking at upgrading range from 35 watts (i7 - 4785 lower motor T, not my first choice) to 88 watts. If I go with a TDP of 65 watts or 88 watts, my heat sink will be able to handle the heat load? And the food will be able to handle the additional energy consumption. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

    It must be one of the processors is can be ordered with, else the BIOS doesn't recognize and are unable to post (start). Search above for others who have improved their processor.

  • The Question Daqmx upgrade

    Hello

    Sorry, I'm just a simple question that I can't find anywhere clarification.

    I'm running on XP SP3, LabVIEW 2010 SP1 with Daqmx 9.1.7 with installed MAX.

    I want to use the new screw TDMS for Daqmx 9.3, so I plan on upgrading to 9.4 (this update will affect the LabVIEW project, I am working currently on, of the forum messages previous forum, since I'm on > 9.0 already, it shouldn't be a problem).

    I don't have internet connected to my computer, and it will be a troublesome organize, so I was wondering for the upgrade, do I just go to MAX > tools > update and who will help me to update my Daqmx driver?  Or should I download the 9.4 from here and install it?  If it's the last option, do I need to uninstall first the 9.1.7.  If I can't uninstall it and risk losing things, then I download on this computer, and then transfer.

    Thank you

    Lester

    Lester,

    If your computer is not connected to the internet, then you will not be able to update the driver through MAX because MAX Gets the update through the internet. The best solution in your case would be to download the updated driver from the link you included, and then install it on the computer that you want to upgrade. There is no need to uninstall an earlier version of NOR-DAQmx as the download will automatically update your previous version. You do not lose the features of your LabVIEW project.

    Good luck

  • Presario CQ57-301TU: which is the best processor upgrade

    Could you please suggest me the best update for my laptop with processor and graphics card

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    You have the Pentium B950. The motherboard is able to accept Pentium processors. See p. 19. The only "upgrade", you can do is a slightly faster Pentium processor as the P6300. Not worth it in my opinion. The video is also limited by the motherboard. The video chip is soldered to the. You have Intel HD video and there is a motherboard with separate video that would be a little better. If you were going to do that you might as well get the motherboard that would accept an i5 processor. But the cost of the new motherboard and the processor and the heat sink would certainly exceed what you have paid for this laptop. The CQ57 series was widely offered as a doorbuster special cheap. You'd be much better off with a new laptop.

    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.

  • 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...

    Someone at - any idea how I can update, the following list lists the T7600 @ 2.33 GHz compatible on the Bus speed and execution step by step. The only difference being the memory cache L2, 4MB compared to my old one of the 2 MB that will have an effect.

    Hello

    Upgrading the CPU is a bit tricky on laptops and more often than not desirable and is not possible.
    After the CPU overheating upgrade, it would be possible that don t cooling modules are working properly and the laptop.
    Why? Well well, the CPU new and stronger products, more heat and the temperature would be Monte. The fan table that is stored in the BIOS will not correspond with the new CPU and the cooling fans would not correctly work.
    In addition, upgrading CPU will void your warranty! It's very risky!

    Anyway, looks like you certainly want to upgrade the processor?
    So I would check the chipset installed on your laptop.
    Try to know the details of the chipset and Intel page for compatible processors research!

  • 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.

  • Area 51 - R2, processor upgrade Question

    Quick question, if I bought the area 51 - R2 with the 5820K i7, but later wanted to upgrade processor... is that motherboard that he would come with the upgrade for all processors support, you can buy with it on the site?

    For example, I was able to install one of the following processors at a later date:

    I7 5930 k

    I7 5960 x

    I7 6850 k

    I7 6900 k

    I7 x 6950

    Just look at long-term, if I wanted to spend by ensuring that the option would be. I remember reading, some people not get the other processors to read... so, I'm curious.

    In addition, is the speed of ram supported max 2133? Because if I got 16GB 2133 I would probably update later myself to 32 GB and want to 2400 mhz or something like that is possible.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Hello

    Yes, the motherboard will support all CPUs, you just need to have the latest version of the Bios (A08).
