Go to solution Solved by Middcore,

They don't sell new laptops with CPU's worse than an AMD A8.

 

Laptop CPU's are virtually always soldered permanently to the mainboard now and cannot be swapped out.

 

Even if the preceding were not the case, you can't swap between Intel and AMD CPU's (at least not now, before some old codger wants to wax nostalgic for Socket 7).

I have a new laptop with a kinda bad CPU but my old laptop has a better CPU a AMD A8 Quad Core. Now I want to replace my intel core i3 (my new laptop) with the AMD A8. What should I do?

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

What i3 and A8 are those? I dont recall AMD making any good mobile CPUs before Ryzen, it's always AMD trying (and failing) to catch up to Intel in the low power segment.
