Compaq Presario CQ57-426SA
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello, I want to upgrade from the E-300 dual core 1.30ghz processor currently installed in my Compaq Presario CQ57-426SA.

 

Can you please provide a list of compatible AMD Processors I can install into this notebook PC?

 

Thank you.

Hi,

 

It is an AMD processor:

 

Model number    E-300
CPU part number    EME300GBB22GV is an OEM/tray microprocessor

Socket    BGA413

BGA processors, like this one, are soldered on a motherboard, as a result, upgrading or replacing them means buying a new motherboard which means buying a new computer.

 

Regards.

BH
