Hello guys,
I've got Toshiba Satellite A105-s4074 (bought in 2006) running at Intel Core Duo T2050 (1.6MHz).
Saw that higher A105 models were running at Core Duo T2400 (1.86MHz), but it has bigger VID Voltage Range + higher Bus Speed according to Intel official web-site so I'm not really sure if it will run smoothly for me. (or it will?)

Also I'd like to know what is the best supportable CPU for this Laptop?

P.S. • motherboard's socket: mpga478mt
• Mobile Intel 945 GM Express Chipset

Timely thanks for helping
 
Successfully upgraded to Intel Core Duo T2600 (2.16MHz) with 2x2GB DDR2-667. No overheating, no throttling (maximum CPU temperature in stress tests: 60 C, working temperatures: 40-55 C) the only one drawback - reduced battery life a bit. Also BIOS was updated to the latest version using a CD (as it was recommended).

P.S. Intel Core Duo T2700 is also will work, but it costs 4-5 times more than T2600. And as they are 32-bit processors, on 32-bit Windows will be only available 3 GB of RAM.
