Acer Veriton N4640G (VN5W2) CPU Upgrade to 7th Gen i5 (Bios: R02-A2)
Hi folks,
I have a Acer Veriton N4640G (VN5W2) (Bios: R02-A2) with i5-6400T and a 65W power adapter. (screenshots and CPU-Z dump attached)
I'm using it as a home theater PC and it's struggling to play x265 10bit videos. (7th Gen IGPU should fix the issue)
I can easily buy a used i5-7500 or i5-7400 (65W) CPU and a 135W power adapter.
i5-7400T & i5-7500T are pretty hard to find where I live.
Can I simply replace my 6400T with a 7500 (non T) and upgrade the power adapter to 135W ?
Do I need to update bios or any other changes?
Thanks in advance.
