Upgrading processor I've got a hp pavilion dv6767tx notebook with a Core 2 Duo 1.86-GHz processor.Is it possible to upgrade it to 2.20-GHz or higher processor because, most of the new games wont work on 1.86 Ghz. i've got 3 GB of ram and a NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS with 256 MB DDR dedicated graphic card.

you posted a statement of fact not a question.
it will support
not
will it support(a real question)

well NO
and NO PC stated, only mobo.(lost the PC ?)
nor that this PC was mobo bought in India?
YOUR mobo is core2, not core(tm) processor
they are not even the same class nor socket
no
here is the list of core i3 (all are LGA
your mobo is core2. (older )
all are over 1000 pins, LGA1156 (gen 0)

you can not stuff 10 pounds(or kg) of mud in 1 pound sack.
no can do.

A duo 1.5 will work approximatively at the speed of a 3.Ghz cpu, just a bit better

First, have you ever changed/upgraded a CPU? It take quite a bit of research to upgrage. If you look at this spec of the Mobo your options are very limited, The Mobo only supports 2 different type Processors, 1, Core 2 Duo (Merom); http://ark.intel.com/products/codename/2683/Merom , 2 Core 2 Duo (Penryn): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penryn_(microprocessor) If you have a 64bit OS consider a memory upgrade, if you haven't already. More info : http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01481519&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3752240#N298

Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:

• Intel Core 2 Quad (Y) Q9xxxx
• Intel Core 2 Duo (W) E8xxx
• Intel Core 2 Quad (K) up to Q6600
• Core 2 Duo E6x00 (C) up to E6700
• Core 2 Duo E4x00 (C) up to E4400

Depends on the socket type.. Socket 423 and 478 do not support core duo or quad core processor types. However, if you have LGA 775 (aka socket T) your motherboard will support the following:
Intel Pentium 4 (2.60 - 3.80 GHz)
Intel Celeron D (2.53 - 3.60 GHz )
Intel Pentium 4 Extreme Edition (3.20 - 3.73 GHz)
Intel Pentium D (2.66 - 3.60 GHz)
Pentium Extreme Edition (3.20 - 3.73 GHz)
Pentium Dual-Core (1.40 - 3.33 GHz)
Intel Core 2 Duo (1.60 - 3.33 GHz)
Intel Core 2 Extreme (2.66 - 3.20 GHz)
Intel Core 2 Quad (2.33 - 3.00 GHz)
Intel Xeon (1.86-3.40 GHz)
Intel Celeron (1.60 - 2.40 GHz)

Good luck.

Your title says you have an AMD CPU but your text says you have an Intel CPU. Which is it?

You are basically limited to what was optional on the model. So you can only upgrade to one of the following cpus:

Intel Pentium M 745 (1.8-GHz) with 400-MHz front
side bus (FSB)
Intel Pentium M 735 (1.7-GHz) with 400-MHz FSB
Intel Pentium M 725 (1.6-GHz) with 400-MHz FSB
Intel Pentium M 710 TJ85 (1.4-GHz) with 400-MHz FSB;
operates at a lower temperature than other processors
Intel Celeron M 340 (1.5-GHz) with 400-MHz FSB
Intel Celeron M 330 (1.4-GHz) with 400-MHz FSB

And you are limted to 2gb of ram max on this model.

Hi,
Yes you can upgrade that notebook.

The notebook is sold with 1GB DDR SDRAM which is upgradable to 2GB RAM, 2 slots 1x1GB in each slot.

The hard drive is usually 120GB SATA which you can put any drive in up to 320GB or 500GB (if you can get on of that size)

The processor is a core duo. It is upgradable but i wouldn't bother with that as 1.6GHz is more than sufficient.


Regards.

Aspire 4315 Specifications Specifications
Part Number
Varies by specifications
Processor / Speed
Intel Celeron mobile processor 530/540/550 (1 MB L2 cache, 1.73/1.86/2 GHz, 533 MHz FSB), supporting Intel 64 architecture
if you have a 2 Ghz processor installed, you will have to replace the motherboard to go with a faster CPU.. which will be spendy..
Hope this helps
