Discussion Hp mini 110 1160ev UPGRADES

[DimosPlou]

So, I started this discussion because i was thinking of doing every possible upgrade to my little laptop so it can become at least as powerful as a RPI.
My cpu is Intel Atom N270 and i found out that it uses the same socket with Intel Atom 330 which has 512 KB more L2 cache 1 more core (2 more threads) but it has a tdp of 8 watt.
N270 uses 2.5watt.
That's why i was thinking if it will support the new cpu.

Also I am still looking for an ssd and doubleing my ram(to 2 gb)!

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

while you are correct that it use the same socket, that socket mean the cpu is solder to the system board.

Oh Thanks for that! I didn't know.
Also i guess that means i can't make a cpu upgrade?

not unless hp mini 110 offer one. then you can look for used replacement board with that cpu.

Ok. Then how anout RAM and an SSD upgrade? As of what I am thinking I could probably add any 2.5 ssd.
About RAM, i have found some different modules but i am not sure if they both support my laptop. Because if yes i would choose the crucial one.

Also I've read that it only supports up to 2gb but i was wondering if there could be a way for a 4gb module to work too
