| | From what little spec their are you have a AMD motherboard and you are inquiring about a i3 Intel chip. Intel chips don't fit or work on a AMD motherboard and visa versa. |

| | dell wasn't all that helpful this time, they asked me if the computer was running slow or what not, and said they the i3 was the 'fastest' one. i told them i wanted to upgrade the cpu, and they asked if i wanted someone to come out and do it for me. |

| | You might have mentioned that the PC is a notebook. It uses Socket S1 mobile CPUs. (Definitely incompatible with anything made by Intel.) Whether its BIOS would support anything other than the CPU that the machine came with, I have no idea. Dell usually offers no information about configurations they have not sold. The "I3" advice was unusually bad. Just out of curiosity, Newegg.com - Computer Hardware, CPUs / Processors, Processors - Mobile, Socket S1 (They're all "refurbished".) One is a quad. Feeling lucky? |

| | Well I will try again. The faster Intel cpu will need a Intel motherboard and maybe more. By the time you buy all the stuff to make it work you could buy two notebooks. You can't make a silk purse out of a pigs ear. |
