Would an i7-3630M in an X230 work?
I know a guy who has a BGA rework station and can do CPU and GPU swaps. Could a Quad Core go in a X230, and if so, which one would be the maximum spec'd one I could put in there?
Probably should be Thinkpad16by10.
Looking For: 386 laptop, IBM or not.

should work fine an it TDP allows it to be powered by the mainboard aswell
BUT
the cpu I7-3612QE is VERY hard to source
it can be found on industrial design fanless boards or add on cards such as the mentioned
