CPU upgrade for A21m?

#1 Post by kansukee » Sat Feb 12, 2011 4:25 pm

I think it's possible to upgrade to a 1ghz cpu but there are many out there. Has anyone done this and knows the exact processor type that's needed? I can get one for $10 or another one for $15 but don't know which one will be compatible. Thanks...

If the chipset allows it, it would be the same CPU as in the T20, P/N 08K3392, Intel SL53S or SL5TF.
That CPU might run too hot though!
And before you do it, make sure that BIOS and ECP have been updated to the latest versions available.
