The 10 9600 chip fit perfectly into my laptop. I only had to remove four screws to get the cover off and then another four screws to get the heat sink off. After cleaning the cat hair out of the heat sink radiator I said it aside pulled out the old chip and install the new one I had to scrape the old thermal paste off of the bottom of the heat sink so the new paste would make good contact. I didn’t have any paste it first so I installed the heat sink and put the cover back on to test how the chip worked. Everything booted up just fine and was very quick using windows 10 pro. The fan did still come on quite a bit even with all that cat hair out of the heat sink but not as much as before. When the thermal paste arrived I remove the cover and heat sink and applied the paste and put it all back together. Now the fan barely comes on at all. Very happy customer.Read full review

I upgraded a Lenovo T400 using T9550 (2.66GHz) and a SL510 shipping with a T3500 (2.1GHz) 800 MHz FSB with the T9600 and it works great in both machines. Impressive for the SL510 that got a very noticable improvement in performance and automatically changed the FSB to operate at 1GHz. There are even faster processors available like T9800 and X9100 but they are much pricier.

It's like I'm using totally different computer now, way snappier. 2.8ghz dual core for $10, easy install.....pretty much the best I'm going to do with my old motherboard

This is an older processor but it is the fastest one for certain Libreboot-compatible Thinkpads. I used this one to switch out a Core2Extreme that was running too hot in a T500. Even though I dropped it and bent some pins, it installed fine and runs great.

Installed this myself after watching youtube videos. Got some Artic Silver 5 thermal paste and popped this new processor in. While it improved my Windows Experience Score from a 5.2 to 6.4 for processor and memory, it didn't seem to make a huge difference in overall performance when surfing the web. I recommend it and a SSD drive to bring the Dell 1545 back to life. The SSD probably makes the biggest difference. I certainly don't regret installing this processor, as I know it is faster, and it was fun and easy to install.

I changed my old Celeron 925 CPU (eMachines E-528) by this one. It took about 10 min to do it. Very easy. Works beautiful. Much faster. Thanks.

I received it and I am waiting for my thermal grease. I am completely positive I will enjoy this CPU as a repair purchase. I may buy another one. It gets received in a bubble pack and is protected by cardboard and CPU is in a plastic shell with the pins protected by a pinkish colored spongy thing. I never bought a CPU this way. Thank you!

CPU is exactly as described. Very clean and looked like new. Operates beautifully in my laptop. It brought new life to an older computer. Came with enough thermal paste for installation. Thank you.
