Can I upgrade my computer processor?

Because of the variety of computer motherboards / specifications / OEM modifications, we do not specify to users if they are capable of upgrading to a higher processor. To obtain this information please contact the computer or motherboard manufacturer or refer to the computer documentation.

When contacting your computer manufacturer concerning a CPU upgrade, ask for the below information that will help you correctly install your CPU:

1. What is the maximum speed I can put into my computer?
2. Do I need to switch any jumpers or dip switches when adding the new CPU, if so, which ones?
3. Do I need any additional hardware when upgrading the CPU such as a Heat sink / Interposer?
