Cpu upgrade

[Nejc005]

Hey guys i have a lot of questions about cpu. I want on my laptop upgrade cpu from bad intel cpu to better cpu. Now i have 1.5mhz cpu and im interestig to put in 3.5mhz So i wonder if will this work. And now if i have intel cpu can i switch to adm cpu. Is this possible, and what i have to know to do this right. And Pls replay.

The proper unit for CPU frequency is GHz. If it was MHz, you wouldn't get anything done. You cannot use an AMD CPU with an Intel socket - a long time ago, you could, but that time has passed. If the CPU you want uses the same socket and your laptop supports it after updating the BIOS(if required), it should work unless the power draw becomes too great.

I don't think you can. Most laptops have their CPUs and gpus soldered in.

That is most likely not possible since laptop CPUs are usually soldered to the motherboard.

Depends on the laptop. Older ones had CPUs you could upgrade and we have no idea what he's using.

How can i know if my laptop will support new cpu? And i don't wanna mess with BIOS and voltages, because im a noob at this.will it be ok if i just replace old cpu with new one?what can go wrong?

I have ASUS X54L model

You need to access the area where the CPU sits in your laptop. If your CPU is upgradable, then you need to check to make sure your BIOS supports it. If not, you will either need to forfeit the upgrade or update the BIOS. If you do the update wrong or power gets removed during the update process, it will probably leave you with a bricked laptop.

Because the laptop is fairly recent, I don't think you'll be able to upgrade the CPU. Check the laptop physically to make sure it's not soldered to the motherboard.

Well if you do decide to get another CPU it would be quite costly I found a cpu that will fit your laptop socket.

But you have to consider that your laptop is not designed for the high end cpu which will produce more heat. Thats even if the cpu is not soldered into the motherboard and if ASUS even supported the cpu to begin with. Also getting to the the laptop is quite tricky for an inexperienced person. U will need a tool kit or an improvised one. I would not try and will not recommend it.

Might as well just buy another laptop at that price.

I didn't mean to do it by my self. I would just buy a proper cpu and take it to someone who is experte at this and do it for me.

Yeah IMO, Its not worth the price, the effort, and the risk. If it performs slow than just get a new laptop. Just ask the community for a good laptop for ~$500. I can guarantee that it is miles better than that laptop.

Let me tell you its not worth doing. Its almost $420 and plus the cost of someone else doing it your looking at about $500. Also if your worried about losing your data you can always transfer it over to a newer pc.

I see a good cpu wich have 3.5 Ghz,16000 mhz cloock speed and 3 MB some space ikd... for 40$ for me it seems pretty good.you said its worthless so i will leave it like it is.

The clock speed cannot be 16,000MHz. That would be 16GHz.
