Upgraded my 2010 Gateway NV-59C laptop I had laying under the bed that hadn’t been used in 3 years. It had a i3-370M, SSD, and 8gb ram. I looked up some videos on how to take the laptop apart to access the CPU. Destroyed the keyboard in the process but that’s my own fault. Swapped it with a new keyboard and she’s good as new. Just make sure you update the BIOS to accept the new CPU BEFORE you install the i7-640M or windows will not open. This CPU upgrade gave new life to my old gateway which will make it usable for several more years!

I've upgraded my old Toshiba A665-S5170 i3 processor with this one in about 45 minutes. One thing I was little surprised with is that despite the picture showing very nice and clean processor, in reality it came in full of old silver thermal paste all over the processor and the GPU. So, the picture in the listing is not the actual processor you are getting. Other then that, works great and for around $50 you can definitely revive your old laptop with easy.

This was a pull from another machine and I was expecting it to be wrapped in bubble wrap and tape. Well it came quickly and it was in a small case with thermal pads and cleaner to install. It went in easily and is performing great in my daughter's pc. An upgrade that didn't cost much and I would recommend this product and Dale's CPU Deals and Computer Parts any day!

I purchesed this product to boost my old laptop Acer Aspire 5742G performance and it helped. It was really easy to replace. Everything runs a little better and the laptop is cool no overheating.

CPU worked perfectly upgrading from an i5 in my Acer Aspire 5820TG - it is an older laptop, so getting to the CPU was quite a chore, had to take it almost completely apart but once there, installation was easy, applied fresh thermal paste and while it does run hotter than the i5, with more demand on the fan, it has been great. Noticeably faster, and has given new life to an older laptop. Better than spending hundreds on a new unit, this was a perfect update for the Acer.
