Hi,
Just wanted to know if it's possible to upgrade my processor to the higher one and what processor is compatible with my laptop Compaq CQ40-337TU ?
Current Specs:
Pentium® Dual-Core Mobile Processor T4200 • 2.0 GHz, 1 MB L2 Cache, 800 MHz FSB, 35W TDP, Socket P
If it so, can I upgrade it to Core 2 Duo T9500 or T9600 maybe ?? Or there is other option?...
Thanks... 😁

You're very welcome.
Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.
Since it has a GM45 chipset, you can upgrade to one of the processors listed in chapter 1.
The T9600 would be the best one you could upgrade to.
