Acer Aspire 5750 cpu upgrade

arijet

I have an old Acer 5750 which came with i3 2330m processor of 35W tdp.
Is it possible to upgrade the cpu with i7 2720qm of 45W tdp?

Hi,

I'm sorry to disappoint you, Quad core CPUs are not supported by your MB.

Hi,

I think you can safely install a i7-2620m without any problem in your laptop, i7-2720qm would work in a 5750G model but there's a 45% chance of it working in your laptop, so I would suggest you to go for 2620m.

If it was my 5750, an SSD would probably give me more bang for the buck than a CPU upgrade. Jack E/NJ

I already have 128 GB SSD and 10 GB ram.

i7-2620m have 2 processor and 4 threads same as i3-2330m, I think it will not effect on my laptop. While on the other hand i7-2720qm have 4 processor and 8 theads, it's a gamechanger.
So, my qustion is now - 
Is this laptop motherboard capable to give the output of 45W TDP?

Hi,

Could you please post the Mother board details in your laptop, you can find the MB number around the memory modules or underneath.

Hi,

I was asking the motherboard number, similar to one in the amazon link and in my snip.

They may look like RGK.02.001 or MB.RGK.02.001

You neeed to open up the laptop and find it physically, normally it's around the memory module.

I think this is what you want...

Hello! taking the question, I have an old Acer aspire 5750G laptop, and I was wondering if the board supports a 4-core processor like the other guy asked ... I leave the images of the laptop's plate ... if you can take a hand...

the Acer aspire 5750G comes with an i3 2330m, and I was wondering if it was possible to change it for a quad-core i7 or failing that by a two-core i7 ... I do not know if you can apply the same answers you gave to the other Boy who started the issue, because I do not know if the motherboards are similar or the same ... that's why I'm wondering to be sure ...

Hi guys, My Packard Bell TS13 has a LA-6901P Motherboard and i succesfully installed an Intel I7-2760QM 2.40ghz CPU onto it (Although i can't comment on whether it is running at its full potential, it does work without any problems)

Today I tried to upgrade my i3 2330m processor to an i7 3632qm on 5750 Acer, and unfortunately was unsuccessful..

Yes, you have to stay in the same generation typically. The 2xxx is 2nd gen, the 3xxx is 3rd.
