Im gaming on my laptop at the moment, It has a Pentuim n3530, Which has 4 very weak, hyper threaded, cores which are clocked at 2.5~ GHZ, Gaming is not fun, And it bottlenecks my HD 4400 I think. Would it be possible to combine the 4 weak cores into 2 stronger ones, Would that improve performance? In my head I thought it would, If possible how would I do it

 Thanks.

Well, your head is wrong: it's not possible.

Not possible. Your laptop is not suited for gaming at all. You essentially have an Atom quad core.

I know, I seen it somewhere else, Why is it sold as a pentuim if its pretty much an atom? Anyway, Il have to stick to CSS, Cause CSGO Just doesnt run. Before I got my main pc I once got it to run 720p/30 it was great :D
