Hi,
I have a Compaq CQ60 120ET laptop with a Wistron 303C mainboard (Chipset 8200M, Southbridge ID075E). The socket type is S1 (638) and currently mounts an AMD Turion X2 RM-70 CPU. I've been wanting to add RAM to the machine (currently it's 3GB DDR2 667) and if possible, to upgrade the CPU - however I'm having some trouble in finding details of the motherboard, such its FSB (it's rumored to be 800MHz, but I couldn't find a trusted source)... My questions are, can I go for DDR2 800, and if so what's the maximum module size that I can put in (will 2x4 GB work)? Also, what's the highest clock rate CPU that I can use in it?
I've recently inquired about upgrading a Clevo 571TU and it was much easier to find the PM45 mainboard specs... Up to compatible CPUs...
Thanks in advance for your replies.
