Hi, I have a question about upgrading the CPU in an Acer Aspire 8930G. Right at the beginning I want to say, clearly that costs money and may not be profitable but it should not go to that. The question is which CPU is the maximum that this notebook supports.
Currently a https://ark.intel.com/...z-fsb.html (2 MB cache, 2.10 GHz, 200 MHz FSB) is installed.
My questions are as follows:
May the new CPU have a higher FSB than 200 MHz?
Where can I find out what the Built MB max FSB supports (I used Google but found nothing)
Where can I find general technical data for the installed MB.
I have already opened such a topic because of CPU upgrade with a Medion laptop and therefore would not always ask, but sometimes know what I have to pay attention. Of course you need first the data of the motherboard what this support, etc. But maybe someone can give me some tips so I do not have to ask every time again.
Sure the CPU is not soldered?
I would just go over the chipset. Since this is the foundation for everything on the motherboard so rumfleucht and creeps.
Here you can have a look for CPU's for your chipset PM45 Express.

In addition, Vllt would also be able to upgrade to SSD
Is not soldered, can be exchanged.
So should a T9900 or an X9100 run on this motherboard?
So is generally the chipset of the motherboard responsible for which CPU is compatible?
Had once installed a T9800 in it, but have taken it again.
The thing became very loud, because of the heat, was not very nice.
So it did not really make sense.
No. Also the BIOS must be up to date.
In the first place, the chipset is responsible.
After that, the BIOS must support the CPU accordingly, but that is update / customizable. The chipset is fixed. You can't change that.
