Was wondering if its possible to upgrade Motherboard and g/cpu on Aspire E15. I have access to cheap Motherboards and Ram. 

I know that the g/cpu is glued to the Motherboard in the Aspire E15, so to upgrade this unit I will have to replace Motherboard. Is there a resource anywhere that I can look at better Motherboard options that are compatible with everything else in the existing E15?

Thanks

  • Here are the motherboards that are for this and their part numbers.

    Here is a link to comparasion of the slowest and fastest. Not a lot of difference. I think you would be wasting your time.

    EA53_BM MB 14222-1 N3540 MP D NB.MRW11.001

    EA53_BM MB 14222-1 N2840 MP D NB.MRW11.002

    EA53_BM MB 14222-1 N2940 MP D NB.MRW11.003

    EA53_BM MB 14222-1 N2830 MP D TBD

    Looks like you already have the N3540. Nowhere to go except install a SSD. If you haven't alreadt, it will make a bigger difference than a faster CPU would.

    Hi,
    Yes, you can install that MB but may I ask the reason for changing the MB, is it because it's faulty?
