You can't upgrade your laptop parts!!! laptop parts are different from desktop components, there is no way to upgrade your laptop, some laptops give you some head room to add up more ram, but changing the cpu of a laptop is impossible. don't forget to close the post, if you do not have any other questions
 
Generally the performance gain is very minimal if you happen to have an option. Its not worth the headache trust me!!! If you want to increase the performance of your laptop installing an SSD would really speed up the responsiveness and like Dark said you may have an option to increase your ram. Check out Crucials website and they can scan your system for available upgrades for both.
 


Utterly untrue because I have upgraded a Compaq C700 from a T2310 to a T7700. I can upgrade the i5 2430m in my current laptop to an i7 2630qm. All the CPU's he listed are laptop CPU's. To determine what your laptop may be compatible with, do a google search for a motherboard for your laptop. Find out what other models used that board and see what CPU they had in them. Those particular CPU's should work with your board. You may need to make sure your bios is up to date first. A core 2 would be far superior than your celeron now. I would recommend just saving up enough for a new laptop though.
 
Initially my laptop had Intel Centrino Core 2 Duo 2.1 GHz T5750 and Toshiba 2GB RAM.It was replaced by Celeron 2.1GHz,and Samsung 2GB RAM in my absence.I was cheated.Since then my laptop is getting over heated and running very slow.
So, I disagree with your saying that Processors can't be replaced.I and think adding more RAM is not the solution.
