I recently purchased a XPS M1530 and it arrived with the T5750 2.0 GHZ Processor. I decided to upgrade it soon to the T9300. I was wondering if doing so there would be a noticeable performance increase in various processes (Gaming,etc).

I have the T7100 1.8ghx CPU and 2GB Ram and Running Vista Business
I find that authoring DVDs and playing games can be a bit slow, so I wanted to Upgrade the power of my CPU.
Can anyone suggest a good CPU to upgrade to, which is compatable with the 1st M1330 ? - I hear that the T9300 is a good one but I dont know anythiing about compatability?
Also, wouyld you recommend another 3GB of RAM? - (Even though I hear that Vista 32 bit only supports 3GB RAM?)
Which processor is better @ stock clocks? The older 2.8 or the newer 2.5?

I took the plunge after finding a final stepping X9000 OEM chip on Ebay for 269Ł and I'd like to upgrade from my T9300. I'm fairly used to working on open laptops and I replaced the CPU in my old Inspiron 8000 with no problems so I figured I should be able to handle this swap as well.
However, I have a few questions.
1. I read in the M1730 thread "Dell is offering the X9000 but like ifti was saying it should be that hard of an upgrade because it looks like u can do it without removing the motherboard
the only thing is this may void your warrenty ud have to check that"
Has anyone successfully switched the CPU on the M1730, and can they confirm that you don't need to remove the entire board and the screws are accessible from the top of the board to remove the CPU?
2. What can I use to clean the existing compound that I will have to remove before applying my own compound (Arctic Silver 5)
3. Any other advice before I break open my M1730?
Is there any actuall difference between T8300 and T9300 ? is there very much deffrence in performace?
View 10 Replies View Related it made quite a bit of differance. Now I'm contemplating going to the X9000 2.8Ghz.
Is there any reason I shouldn't? Will I see any differance? I'm basically trying to get my computer to run as fast as possible. Not sure why, just always have the urge to work on and improve things
Looking to get my sister a m1330 for a graduation gift and right now if you spend $1300 plus on a M1330 u get 25 percent off.
So i'm looking for ways to get the laptop to add up to $1300 and i can either upgrade the processor to

I just wanted to double-check if it's possible to drop in a Santa Rosa "refresh" into an older M1300 (Nov. 2007, std. SantaRosa w/ T7500, latest BIOS) and if it makes sense to...
I can buy a "boxed" T9300 for about €300, which does not exactly translate into a cheap upgrade so before I do so, I'd like to know if anyone's done it and if the performance boost is worth it...
Both processors are ~35W...
I just upgraded to a T9300 CPU, I bought it in ebay for Ł120 only, brand new (not an ES), and it is great. It is much cooler than the T7300 I had. Idle temp is around 32oC where before were around 40-42 oC. Of course I don't know if that was because I put fresh AS paste on the CPU where before the T7300, I think, had a thermal pad (melted on the core).
To be honest though, changing the CPU wasn’t as easy as I was imagined. Unfortunately I didn’t take any photos as I didn’t know what I was doing but in the end all went well. I had to remove the graphic card and in order to remove the heat sink I had to remove a couple of other screws of the back chassis so I lifted it a bit to slide out carefully the heat sink. Then you remove the old CPU, clean the heat sink with ethanol and then place the new CPU, put some AS paste on the core and slide the heat sink in carefully and screw it tight on its place.
It is slightly faster in the games and much faster in using other software like movie maker. The games are running much smoother now but that is with games that are close to 21-24fps. World in Conflict uses a lot of that CPU. I ran the benchmark and with High physics and the CPU usage was 98-100%, both cores. During gaming is much less around 35%, explosions produce CPU usage spikes. Temp of CPU is around 65oC most of time during gaming, but it can go up to 68oC if you demand more from the CPU. My wPrime 32M score was 41s-42s with the T7300 and now is just below 30s (29.687s). My 3Dmark06 score increased as well from 4240 to 4567. I am very pleased with the end result.
Next thing is to upgrade to fast RAM like the 4GB (2x2GB) HyperX Kingston CL4 667MHz or 800MHz, then 320GB WD hard drive Black Scorpio and maybe try to upgrade to a new graphic card compatible with Acer 5920G with at least 512MB memory (9600M GS perhaps).
is it a good idea to get a T9300 and overclock it to 2.6 GHz-2.8 GHz? The only difference (according to Intel's sheets) is the clock speed between T9300 and T9500.
I plan to buy a T9500/T9300 and put it in my Acer Aspire 6920G. Hopefully T9300 and OC.
I popped a T9300 into my 5920G which went smoothly. But it seems its getting to hot...? I measured up to 66 Degrees C on the cores under load and 47 C idle.....? I though the stock processor T7500 and the T9300 disapated the same power?

Is the best CPU I can fit the T9500?
By my understanding, everything quicker than the T9500 has the 1066MT/s FSB and won't work? Is this correct?
Would you consider the performance increase from T9300 to T9500 worth the money and hassle?
I've got a PM45 based notebook (DV7t-2080) which currently has a T6400 (Penryn 2M, 2.0ghz, 35Watt tdp)

Have a t9300 from an HP Pavillion that died, and figured I could best put it to use in my new Acer 7738g, which currently has a t6500. I've heard it's possible but the whole socket M/socket P thing has me scratching my head...
Also not sure if the 7738 is one of those take-everything-apart-to-get-to-the-CPU jobs or just uncrew the base... and then eventually the heat sink to get to the CPU...anyone with experience with this series?
The cpu Intel Core 2 Duo T9300 SLAYY is compatibile with the intel gl40 chipset. But is compatible also with the Acer Extensa 5230? (bios 1.28)
Instead the T5750 is compatible with this notebook?
Is it normal that dell.ca would have fewer choices of screens than dell.com? I'm looking at the studio 15, and dell.com lists Hi Resolution/Bright,
glossy widescreen 15.4 WLED display (1440x900) as a choice, which is what I want, but dell.ca doesn't. When I view the system specs though, that choice is listed as on option.

my laptop vostro 3460 won't boot any more. When I turn it on it loads the Dell logo (I suppose it passes the POST) but then it just shows a black page. It could be anything, but I guess that it may have something to do with Windows 8 and the UEFI system. I also would be quite happy to install linux mint and get rid of Windows, but I don't know how to change the boot priority order.
So my questions are:
1 is it a hardware issue ? if not, can I solve my problem easily ?
2 how can I change the boot priority order, to install mint ?

View 3 Replies View Relatedwhen i first got my dell inspiron and it was all good. when i set the monitor to shut off after 1 minute of being idle, it did and would not turn on unless someone moved the mouse of pressed a button. however, after i reformatted, the computer monitor would shut off after 1 min but soon afterwards it turns on again by itself, then it goes off again, then it remains on permanently. i recently formatted my laptop again and this problem persists. anyone knows whats sup? im using xp ftw... and my configurations are the same as it was before the reformats so idk whats wrong.
