I have a laptop with a T5450 processor and PM965 chipset. On Intel website,

those products are not listed as compatibles... and now I'm looking

upgrade for my processor but I don't know wich chose because I'm not

sure of the compatibility.

When I have opened my laptop, i have readed my chipset number :LE82PM965

It is suppose to be a chipset with a FSB of 800 Mhz but my processor have only a FSB of 667Mhz... I presume that the chipset are able to run with a slower FSB .

And now, I won't buy a other laptop if I can just switch the processor.

This arangement are on a Pavilion DV6755CA from HP

Anybody have already seen that ?

If you look in HPs Parts Surfer you will get a list of supported CPUs . I'm guessing but I would say a T7200.

I have a four year old DV9023us and I looked into changing the CPU also. But I choose to install a SSD HD , Know this thing flies. like it's got a quad core. Best upgrade I ever did to the note book, Even though it's a SATA 1.5 , it still made a huge improvement. Did a clean install of windows 7 64 bit . like a new machine.

You can also go to DDR2-800, instead of the DDR2667 you have now.
