Hello,
I have this 17' laptop. It has a dual core Intel CPU right now which runs at 1,83 GHz (Intel T2400)
It also got a AMD Radeon Mobility X1400 GPU and 1 GB or RAM.
Can I upgrade that CPU to i5?
I have a i5 2nd gen from another Dell laptop. I'm not sure what version of i5 is, I only know is second gen.
Both CPU's can be removed from their sockets and I think the i5 can fit in the notebook socket.
What do you guys think?
