November 26, 200619 yr Really need to upgrade my Procressor to maintain smoothness and graphric quality with my games. How? Basically. Is it even possible to upgrade a Processor on a laptop? If so, Which Processors would YOU *Points* Recommend? My dA account..retired, as of the 1st January 2008.
November 26, 200619 yr No, it generally isn't possible. When it is possible, it isn't worth it. To maintain smoothness in games you generally need a graphics card upgrade more than a CPU upgrade anyway. Some people are changed by being a moderator. I wouldn't be.
November 26, 200619 yr Author Graphics card eh? Well these are the specs. of my laptop.. My dA account..retired, as of the 1st January 2008.
November 26, 200619 yr I've seen conflicting information, some saying it has integrated graphics, others saying it has mobility Radeon x300 - either way it is not upgradable and will never have good performance on games. Some people are changed by being a moderator. I wouldn't be.

Thats your graphics card.
November 30, 200619 yr I think it might be possible to OC your processor. Intel processors usually OC well, though since it is a laptop, I'm not sure if it's possible.
November 30, 200619 yr Graphics card eh? Well these are the specs. of my laptop.. Well, luke, It's almost impossible to 'tune' a laptop; due to the small space avaible and other covers. besides that, when u upgrade something on your computer (hardware) most times alot of upgrades are connected to it In your case, i'd suggest buying a new computer (no laptop) which u get placed together by someone who knows something about it (which u clearly don't :? ) Then make some specifications and let him combine the parts needed and u'll have urself a game-pc (which isn't free ofcourse)

December 1, 200619 yr To update ur processor it will cost u like 300-400 dollars, u can buy a whole pc with a 3ghtz processor for that
December 1, 200619 yr To update ur processor it will cost u like 300-400 dollars, u can buy a whole pc with a 3ghtz processor for that Where the hell are you buying processors? You can pick up AMD x2's for $150 now and single cores for well under $100. Either way, it's irrelevant because we're talking about a laptop that can't be upgraded.
