Rules when upgrading
(
NOTE 1: )
Not every computers CPU can be upgraded, without imposing a high risk. As the processor can be soldered Into place on a motherboard and if done wrong you might not have a working computer anymore...
(
NOTE 2: ) When looking up processors make sure the motherboard is compatible with the new CPU being installed and you might have to properly configure the processor once upgraded). [This can be just as sample as reinstalling Windows or other OS]. Getting a more powerful processor does not mean you will be automatically supported for that motherboard as it can fry it if wrong type or not allow the computer to start-up. So look into what your motherboard pin slots support before checking you're processor order-out. As tech change moving forward.
(
NOTE 3: ) When buying a computer or a new CPU, you will need to remember that just because the CPU looks and feels faster it might not be the one you really wanted it for, if your a multitasker and your buying non multitask CPU it will not preform at its top ability level as features are disabled to speed up the GHz of the PC and if you don't have a graphics card like most budget Laptop(s) can make a real problem as the graphic power has been dropped down have it feel speeder.
