Hello guys,
I have a Acer Aspire 5733z-4633 laptop that currently has a Pentiun p6200 . However, I am looking at upgrading my current cpu to an i7-640m which has the same socket G1/rPGA988a. As well as, its supported by my Intel HM55 Express chipset and has the same 35w TDP as my pentium. I have looked around the forums and saw someone with an Acer Aspire 5733z laptop line and he replaced his pentium with an i5-540m, so I am certain that I can do the same thing with my own laptop. What is your guys opinion on changing out the current laptop CPU with a higher end one?
P.S: The link below is the seller on ebay who is selling the i7 and I want your guys input if the product is legit and in fair condition before I purchase it. Thank you!
