    You can change the CPU, but it's impossible to change the T9300, the processors with different interfaces, do you think you can change them?

    You are now an i3, and you can change to the first generation Smart Core i5

    Or the i7's processor.

    Currently, the CPU cannot be replaced. Think about it: if you change the CPU, should the motherboard be changed?

    Do you want to change the graphics card? The answer is yes. Because CPUs are integrated on the motherboard, their sockets need to be consistent.

    It can be replaced, my computer is ASUS A40JY (ASUS official website is called K42JY), which is lower than your one, it is standard with P6200, and I changed it myselfI5 430M.

    The HM55 chipset supports up to i7 640M, I recommend that you can upgrade i5 520M or 540M, **500-600, the performance is very close to i7, dual-core 4 threads; The i7 supported by the HM55 chipset is not actually quad-core, but dual-core, but integrates one more instruction set than the i5.

    Hello, This CPU is soldered directly to the motherboard, so it is impossible to replace, but some can be removed and replaced, but due to the particularity of the notebook CPU, it is not easy to buy the right model of CPU, it is recommended that you go to a professional place to consult clearly to see how to operate, I hope it can help you.

    CPU can change i5 480m

    More than 200 yuan second-hand.

    Memory plus 2G DDR3 1333

    100 graphics cards can't be replaced.

    Hard drives can be replaced with solid-state ones.

    Samsung or Pukot 64g.

    The speed increase is more obvious.

    Changing the configuration of the notebook? Unlikely, unless you have a very powerful computer hardware knowledge, the notebook is not a desktop, most of the hardware is soldered to the motherboard, if you want to upgrade the configuration, just change to a new notebook, only the memory can be increased, and other configurations are too difficult to upgrade.

    The CPU can be swapped for i5 and must be a generation i5 mobile or a generation i7 mobile such as an i7 840

    The memory can be swapped or added with DDR3 notebook memory modules.

    Hard drives are of course replaceable.

    The optical drive can be replaced with a Blu-ray one. It can also be replaced with an SSD (the size of the SATA interface) wireless network card can be replaced with a wireless Bluetooth integrated one, remember that it is a half-height card, it must be a model that can be accommodated in the Huading whitelist).

    Economic method: Add 2G memory sticks and upgrade to 4G memory.

    Play games more smoothly: add 2G or change 2G to 4G memory sticks, change to 1G discrete graphics card, and the dual-core with the main frequency should be fine.

    Laptop upgrades are generally about adding memory and replacing hard drives.

    1. The heat dissipation of the laptop CPU is limited, and upgrading the CPU will lead to a greater heating return, which is not economical and unrealistic. You can overclock your CPU and boost your performance.

    2. Add memory modules. Win8 64-bit system, using 4G or more memory is very good. 8G of memory for multitasking is sufficient.

    3. Replace the hard disk, the mechanical hard disk can improve the performance of the solid state disk a lot, the boot speed is fast, and the decompression speed is also significantly faster. Typing speed will also be improved.

    4. It can be said that the slow speed of mechanical hard disk is the bottleneck of the notebook. Replacing the SDD can significantly speed up.

    The CPU of ASUS K42JP is Intel Core i3 380M is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be replaced, at present, only high-end computers can replace the CPU, and some mid-to-high-end computers can also be replaced.

    And because the laptop power supply and high-end are already the last U, there is little point in replacing them.

    The default is M after the notebook CPU model, which represents the mobile version.

    If M becomes H, it represents a high-performance version with a higher clock frequency and higher performance, but a little more power consumption, such as the i7 4500H.

    If M becomes U, it represents a low-voltage version with a low clock frequency, energy saving, and lower performance, such as the i5 4200U.

    If M changes to Y, it represents an ultra-low voltage version, which is generally used in ultrabooks and has very low performance, such as the i5 3339Y.

    In addition, there are QM and XM, QM stands for quad-core, no Q is dual-core, XM stands for Extreme Edition, which generally appears in flagship CPU products, and the performance is also the strongest among all models.

    Most of the CPU of the notebook is not soldered to the motherboard, except for the ultrabook and netbook, but the notebook is changed to a higher U and the heat will increase at the same time, it is not recommended to add it. Probably take a look at it, you are the i series of the generation of u i3, just change it to i5 i5 there is no need to change it at the same time affect the running speed of the notebook is not necessarily u For example, the u performance of i3 is already the key is in the hard disk and memory Replace u with i7 on the previous mechanical hard disk The running speed will not be much of a commission The speed of the mechanical hard disk has reached a bottleneck.

    This old notebook is a generation of i3 and i5 two kinds of CPUs, if the power consumption is not the same, it can't be replaced casually, and they are all soldered on the motherboard, you can find a second-hand CPU with the same power consumption and then consider replacing it.

    The i3 Gen Mobile is replaceable and is not "soldered to the motherboard".

    Hello, the hardware of the notebook is not easy to upgrade. There are very few notebooks to change graphics cards and CPUs, adding memory modules is a way to solve slow operation, it is easy to achieve, but changing CPUs, they are not like desktops, as long as the motherboard is compatible, you can change it if you want to, so the desktop is also called a compatible machine, the cup and graphics card of the notebook are specific models, especially the graphics card, the possibility of changing is not large, many graphics cards are integrated graphics cards, or independent graphics cards soldered on the motherboard, these are not exchangeable, there is a modular independent graphics card, there may be more advanced graphics card modules can be replaced, However, there is no standard for interface and shape, and it can only be seen whether the notebook manufacturer has launched a replaceable module! If you need to change it, you have to go to a special maintenance point to ask, I think if you can change it, it should cost a lot of money, if the computer can still be used, it is recommended not to use the two main hardware.

These are ASUS's current flagship models,A42,A40 are all used in K42 motherboards,So it shows the K42 model when tested by Master Lu,There is also A40 is an upgraded version of the other two,Mainly in terms of heat dissipation,A42 looks better than K42 in appearance,This is also a matter of wisdom and wisdom。 I just bought an A40 i5-460 graphics card 310 yesterday, that's the one you said, I feel that the cost performance is good, I don't know what the problem is, I started with 4550, Lanzhou, estimated to the lowest. I hope you can buy a satisfactory machine, there is a problem hi me.

The Y460 is of course the best, a computer that doesn't play games is a computer that doesn't need configuration, and it's more than enough to cope with programming and **. For heat dissipation, different computers have different heat dissipation, but whether it is hot or cold, it is all considered in the design, so there is no need to worry too much about heat dissipation, some computers are very hot without playing much, but they still run very smoothly, and heat dissipation is not a big problem.
