Just scored a 1ghz upgrade for my t20!

#1 Post by ninjapirate350 » Tue May 09, 2006 5:27 pm

Well, I have a SL35S on the way for my T20 and I was curious to know if I should upgrade the heatsink/fan while I'm into it, I've read a few posts that say the T22 heatsink is a much better piece of equipement, so I'm considering it to beat the heat. My laptop runs really hot anyway.

Thanks!

Answer: Check the CPU temp using mobilemeter. If you find it very high, you should upgrade the fan. If the temp is moderate, you are OK with what you have now. What temp is considered high? See the other thread.

hello did the same with my t22 but the fan and hs are uprated you can see the differance if you check some sellers on ebay, it made a massive boost from 800 to 1 ghz or you could under clock and go up bit at a time

Don't bother, that Celeron CPU won't fit in your T20.

Here's you choices, up to 1GHz only for the T20.

SL35S cant possibly be the right S-Spec... thats for a PPGA celeron, not 1ghz, not mpga2 or even mpga478 (for T23), but s370...
Thinkpad T60 2613-CTO (2\4m\667, 3GB, 200GB 7200, DVD-RW DL, SXGA+, 3945ABG, 128MB x1400, GBe, BT IV)
Thinkpad T40 2373-PU7 (1.7\2m\400, 2GB, 120GB 5400, DVD\CDRW, SXGA+, Intel 2915ABG, 32MB MR7500, GBe, BT II)
Thinkpad T23 2648-PS1 (1.2, 512mb, 2915ABG)

SL53S? I think I made typo earlier, but whatever I have put in there works fine, see my other thread.

If I'm not mistaken, the 1 GHz CPU for the T20-22s is the SL53S. I'd wager that the quoted SL35S is just a typo.
