Compaq Presario CQ62-219WM CPU Upgrade

[juarbeabraham]

I need upgrade my CPU. I search a lot of information but for Compaq Presario CQ62-219WM are not to much about what CPU is good for UPGRADE my PC.

The reason are for Video Edition and little bit gaming. The computer information is:

- HP Compaq Presario CQ62-219WM
- Intel Celeron 900 2.00GHz 1M 800MHz
- 2GB RAM
- Windows 7 Ultimate 64bits
- BIOS GL40

Relevant info is in Chapter 1, pages 1 & 2

your choices for cpu for your motherboard are the following one.

also know you cannot put more than 4GB of ram on that system so I fear video editing is going to have to rely on your video card and since your PCIE slot for that purpose is limited to what is currently into your system and from the tech manual indicated above, is a 512MB or 1GB video card which is not a lot of video card power for video editing.

I update the BIOS info and the PC info to, because I think I have a CQ62-215DX and is a CQ62-219WM.

I see in this forum GL40 Motherboard Compatibility about GL40 compatibility with differents CPU and i see you can put a Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile T9300 2.5 GHz Dual-Core 6M 800MHz because have the same FSB.

So... I think a Intel Core 2 T9300 with 4GB RAM run good, right?
