Upgraded my old Lenovo Laptop 32 to 64 bit architecture

Replacing this Microprocessor from Intel 32 bit Architecture to the newer 64 bit instruction set gave my old obsolete IBM Z61T Laptop new life. Now my New Old Lap runs all the newer programs and operating systems. I had an Intel T2300 and the replacements possible are Intel T7400, T7200 or T7600. Runs Great. Be sure to update your BIOS to the newest Version or you will not have the capabilities like running SSD Hard drives or the advanced Intel instructions sets. I Watched Youtube to help me take apart the old lap. MADE MY 16 Year OLD Laptop Run Much Faster!Read full review...

Great Bargain

Just be sure you are comfortable taking apart your computer before ordering this. I consider it an easy job but I've been taking things apart since I was child and successfully putting them back together again. But, stepping outside your comfort zone and trying something new is a good thing too. If you fail will ruin your day? Read full review...

Probably works great, just need a motherboard now :)

Bought this for my dead Alienware Area51 M9750 laptop, dropped it in and pasted it. Unfortunately it did not fix my issue, my laptop will still not turn on. Replacing the CPU was just a shot in the dark after replacing the power supply and some other parts. Looks like I'll have to replace the motherboard and/or the video cards next. But I'll probably just replace the whole laptop due to the price.Read full review...

Works as well as it should if new. Good upgrade to a low spec laptop. Well packaged. Poor tracking on shipment. Happy

Good upgrade chip with lots of cache!

Replaced a Core2Due 2.0 GHz 2MB Cache CPU with this version that has 4MB cache. Upgraded my Dell Latitude D620 laptop. Doesn't make a noticeable difference for most things, but it really shines in programs like Photoshop. Worth the upgrade for the price!Read full review...

Great Upgrade for Dell E1505 Laptop

This was a upgrade to my Dell E1505 laptop it runs good and is faster then what I had before if you change your CPU make sure your BIOS supports the new one before replacing it this CPU has support for 64-Bit and Virtualization two things I was looking for it runs a few degrees hoter the the old one but still not bad I have seen other laptops run hotter.Read full review...

Cheap upgrade to Mac mini

Used this to upgrade a single core Mac mini. Works and gives a nice speed boost.

Awesome upgrade for aging Mac Mini

I bought this CPU for my wife's Mac Mini, which had a CoreDuo (not Core 2 Duo) running at 1.6GHz. Wow! what a difference - in a good way. Combined with the 64GB SSD drive upgrade, that Mac Mini boots to the desktop in 7 seconds.
This CPU runs a bit hotter, but nothing to worry about. Just use smcFanControl to turn up the RPMs on the CPU cooling fan.

Very tight fit but performs well

Fit into my IBM T60 very tight, but with some force I was finally able to get it to "snap" in. It will NOT go in there smoothly like the T3200 processor, it will take some force. Don't be scared, and as gently as you can... fit it in there.Read full review...
