Upgrade CPU on a Satellite M40: Celeron to Pentium M (?)

Hello world

I have a simple question. Don't you think that we can change the processor in a M40 - 307 (the one with the ATI chipset) Celeron m for a Pentium M?

I currently have a Dothan Celeron M370 (400 mhz fsb), so I guess that a dothan Pentium M (400 mhz) would do?

Thank you!

WARNING: I know what I'm doing in terms of opening the laptop, as a matter of fact the 1, 5 ghz celeron is currently pine-modded to 2 ghz, the warranty is already more than 6 months, the rest of the computer has already been upgraded (HD, RAM) and the pentium M, I have in mind (725 and 735) are available for about 15 euros.

Well, I discovered that the Satellite M40 were equipped with processors different as;
Processor Intel Pentium M (Dothan) and Intel Celeron M.

Processor Intel Dothan (533 MHz)
730 1.6GHz
740 1.73GHz
750 1.86GHz
760 2.0 GHz
770 2.13GHz

Processor Intel Celeron M (400 MHz)
350 1.3 GHz
360 1.4 GHz
370 1.5 GHz.

So, theoretically, all these processors must be compatible. But as I said s theory.
Practically, it s always another story

  • Upgrade CPU of my Satellite Pro L300-152

    Hello

    my laptop is a:

    Toshiba Satellite Pro L300-152
    Model no. PSLB1E-01R015EN
    Celeron 560 2.13 GHz

    Can someone tell me what CPU I can pass safely, I use it in a cool environment and care about a few 100 mhz more of her.

    Thank you for your support

    Before you start to discuss CPU upgrade, check it please this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    My personal opinion is that upgrading the CPU won't help much and you will not realize a difference in performance for laptop. In my opinion need more RAM or SSD better and faster. This better and better performance some CPU with 100 mhz dating more than one.

  • Upgrade CPU on the Satellite C850D

    My Toshiba Satellite is equipped with a processor 1.4 GHz very slow and im quite fed up of not being able to run many applications at all due to its extremely slow speed of calculation. is there a way I could get a more powerful processor for this computer? If Yes, what else it would take like a necessary upgrade for it?

    Data sheet:

    Processor: AMD E1 - 1200 APU with graphics HD Radeon (TM) 1.40 GHz
    Installed (live RAM) memory 4.00 GB (3.60 GB usable)
    system type: 64-bit operating system
    Pen and touch: no stylus or touch.

    I can get and install RAM and SSD myself, I just want to know if theres a possible CPU to update here.

    Generally speaking, CPU or GPU update is not supported. More info on what you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    Due to the specific design each laptop has the cooling system specific that allows the optimum temperature of material and do not allow any laptop to run on the critical temperature. A more powerful processor means more heat, so I think that's not such a good idea to change. CPU utilization slightly faster not bring you performance much more, I guess. Three years ago my brother has updated CPU on his old machine P300 but there is not much difference.

    After upgrade RAM and SSD laptop was very fast, very big initialize and reaction time.
    You are right about RAM and SSD. You can do this alone.

    Post if you please the exact model name and we can check what RAM modules are compatible with it.

  • Upgrade CPU on the Satellite L75D

    Hello

    My Satellite model 17 L70D-A-009 "AMD A10 5750 M mobile computer has up and died on me. 2 different repair shops to agree with me that it is the motherboard, so I bought another. Its used and as one of mine, the model number is A000243670 but is it a satellite, model L75D-A7268NR 17 "AMD A8 5500.
    I think that the 2 boards differ in that each of them have a rendering different BIOS chip my A10 does not work on the new Board of Directors. That or the A10 in my laptop is hooped.

    Anyway, the question I have is can the AMD A8 5500 in the Satellite L75D - A7268NR 17 "be upgraded with the A10 5750 M.

    Thank you

    First important information:
    Update CPU is not supported by the laptop manufacturers.
    This means that information on possible and compatible processors are not provided by the manufacturer.

    However, the CPU upgrade depends on two main points: chipset and BIOS.
    In case one of the parts mentioned would not support the new processor, the update is not possible.

    From my own experience, the upgrade of the AMD CPU is more complicated as an upgrade to an Intel processor. A lot of people here in the forum already updated the Intel CPU, but I did not have anyone who has improved an AMD processor...

    Satellite L75D-A7268NR was not released in Europe however, USA. and probably you should check the Toshiba forum us for more details on this laptop.

    Is it possible to upgrade my processor AMD E1-1200 1.4ghtz what anyone faster than that,
    I want to be able to play FIFA14 apparently she drags on the current processor.

    My ram is 6 GB and I think that's enough.

    Usually these updates is not supported by any laptop manufacturer.

    But I read in some discussions that to some were able to upgrade the Intel processors in laptops own. But your laptop (which model of phone is it exactly?) seems to be equipped with an AMD processor and I guess that the chipset is AMD too.
    In this case only the AMD CPUS would be compatible with the AMD chipset.

    However, even if the AMD chipset would be favorable to another CPU, I guess you would have problems with BIOS. In many cases, the compatibility of the BIOS might be the main reason why a CPU upgrade would not work.

  • Question about the upgrade memory for my Satellite M40-307

    Sorry for the newbie question. But if I have 512 MB of memory for the time being, what are my upgrade options?

    Do I have to buy pairs of memory? So I can or buy 2 x 1 GB = 2 GB, or 2 x 512 MB = 1 GB + 512 existing. Or can I say just buy a single 512 MB or 1 GB chip?

    Since no one wants to answer:
    1. check if your laptop supports Dual Channel Ram (it should be, but just see the manual to be sure)
    2. knowledge of what type of RAM you have. This will add or remove a possibility of upgrade

    The thing with Dual Channel is, that you have the best performance if you use 2 RAM of the same type (really of the same type: company, size...)
    you could:
    3. Add a 512 MB of RAM of the same type you have
    3 b. buy 2 pieces of new RAM of the same type (1 GB + 1 GB, or 2 + 2 GB) and do not forget that your laptop supports this quantity (once again: manual to check)

    You will also find in the manual, if your computer supports DDR or same DDR2 RAM (faster)

    If you have lost your manual, you can download it here on the toshiba Web page

    I hope I could help a little.

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite A100-521

    Hi all, looks like a good forum here! I'm looking for more information about upgrading the processor on my Satellite A100-521.

    The current main specifications are:

    So it's the CPU that's the weak link, verified by the Windows performance index.

    I did some research and it seems that the chipset is AMD Radeon Xpress 200 m http://www.amd.com/u...s-200m-amd.aspx which is apparently compatible with some Pentium and Core 2 CPU: http://en.wikipedia...s_200_for_Intel

    Any ideas what I could update? Didn't need to be very fast, just a little faster with the processes of daily...

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Upgrading CPU is generally very delicate due to the compatibility of the BIOS.
    Although the chipset would be able to handle new CPU, BIOS can cause problems.
    But no one is able to say that if cell would stable after these updates if you want to be 100% sure, I recommend choosing a CPU that has already been used in the A100 series
    Otherwise, it would be possible that new CPU would not be addressed by BIOS correctly.

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite Pro C660-219

    Hello.

    I wonder just to upgrade CPU on my laptop to get some perfomance.
    I did the upgrade of RAM to 8 gb and 64 bit Win7.
    Now, it's processor i3 - 370 M (3 m cache, 2.40 GHz).

    I'm sure I can go to i3 - 390 M (3 m Cache, 2.66 GHz) processor, but it will be useless IMO.
    It has same Cache and just a little bit faster CPU count:

    > I need someone to answer the question: can I ride this laptop an i5 or i7 without problem with compatibility with the motherboard?
    You should know that upgrades of processors are not supported by any laptop manufacturer. This means that no one can tell if a CPU would be fully compatible and cause no worries. These upgrades are own risk.

    You could read this statement from Toshiba about upgrades.
    [Is it possible to upgrade the CPU or GPU of a Toshiba laptop computer? | http://APS2.Toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm]

    The point is that even the chipset which is part of the motherboard would support the new processor, BIOS would not fully compatible and the combination of BIOS and the new processor may cause new troubles.

    The camera seems to supports the INTEL HM55 chipset and to my knowledge, the Toshiba Satellite C660/C665/Pro C660 series is based on a Dual Core/Quad Core Processor (* Intel Arrandale processors *)

    So if you want to find a compatible CPU, you should check the processors owned by the family of processors Intel Arrandale.

  • Satellite M40-276 - memory not detected in the Bios upgrade

    Hi people!

    New kid on the block!

    I have a client with a toshiba Satellite m40-276. I've updated his memory to give it a little more to play with...

    Went into the bios to see if everything was OK but no projected additional memory. I removed the new and old memory and put in the new 1 GB module and restart the computer.
    The bios has not yet changed the size of the old memory?

    Went to windows and of course that the memory has been detected it normally?
    I added the other memory module and went into the bios again, but no change it?

    Windows, however, recognized that the two modules?

    His computer is the same bios to factory and has never been updated.

    My questions are... why the bios doesn't recognize the upgrade memory? It will help in upgrading the bios?

    Enjoy all the suggestions I can get on this issue.

    Thank you

    Generally, if you upgrade RAM using tested compatible modules, that should be recognized correctly.
    We do not know what modules you use, and I guess that there is a compatibility issue.

    RAM on Satellite M40 276 can scale up to 2 GB of RAM and compatible modules are:
    DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
    512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)
    1 GB OF DDR2 400/533 (PA3411U-1M1G)

  • Is it possible to upgrade the processor in a Satellite M40 - 101?

    I have 479 pin provided Pentiuma® M 730 1.6 Ghz processor. It is insufficient for some tasks more. So I would like to upgrade CPU, but is it possible?

    Hello

    Theoretically, it is possible to upgrade the CPU but practically it is not easy to do.
    The M40 comes with different CPU's.
    As far as I know, these processors has been used and are compatible:
    -Processor Intel Dothan (533 MHz)
    730 1.6 GHz
    740 1.73 GHz
    750 1.86 GHz
    760 2.0 GHz
    770 2.13 GHz

    It seems that notebook was shipped with the first.
    But believe me; No one can tell if the laptop can run successfully after the CPU upgrade.
    As you probably know the faster and more powerful processor produces more heat and this could lead to overheating of the laptop.
    In my view, this is a serious problem and you should be careful

    By the way: Please check this thread. The risk of upgrading have been described very detailed:

    Thank you

    Upgrade CPU on laptops is not supported. This means that no one will be able to tell if the new CPU would work and if the laptop would be stable after this upgrade.

    Primarily this unit seems to be new. In this case, the warranty is still valid. If you disassemble the notebook in order to remove the CPU, you will void the warranty.
    I put t think it's worth a try.

    PS: even if you want to put a new processor, the performance gain is not noticeable. In my opinion better upgrade would be the use of SOLID-STATE drive instead of the HARD disk
