Laptop CPU

[bbtsalwa]

Is there a way to tell what core and generation my laptop CPU is by physically opening the laptop and look at the soldered chip

No probably not. Most laptop chips are cooled using direct die cooling so the chip is cooled directly with no integrated heat spreader. The integrated heat spreader is normally what manufactures put the part number on.

 

You should be able to find what model CPU you have by pressing control shift escape on the keyboard. This will open up task manger, click on More details, then select the performance tab and it should show you what processor is installed.

If the motherboard has a part number somewhere on it (might be a sticker) then you could look up that product number and see what chip it has.

That is the simplest way.
