HP ProBook 650 G1 47W cpu upgrade

[x6x]

Hi everyone. Can i upgrade my cpu(i3-4000m ) on HP ProBook 650 G1 (D9S33AV) HM87 chipset with this CPU I7-4700MQ 47W TDP?

In Bios Version:01.22 A is added support for the Intel I7-4800QM  processor ( MQ I think ).

In HP ProBook 640 G1, 645 G1, 650 G1, and 655 G1 Notebook PCs - Maintenance and Service Guide Oct 1, 2015  I find support for Intel™ Core® i7-4802MQ 2.70-GHz processor (1600-MHz FSB, 6.0-MB L3 cache, quad core, 47 W. I can’t find anything information about this cpu model.

It’s possible 47W TDP CPU run on this model?

Thanks.

If the CPU is not listed in the Service Manual then you cannot assume it will work and in fact should assume it will not.

Hi I work for HP and for the above question you would not be able to change the processor.I would recommend you to purchase a unit with a higher processor specification because changing a system on chip would cost you more than purchasing a unit with newer processor.

That is not correct the processor is socketed and can be replaced and upgraded. However, the concern about economics is valid. An i7 processor is going to cost $200-500 and may approach the cost of a new laptop although nowhere near the cost of a new Probook. If you can do the work yourself it can be a viable proposition but if you have to pay for labor it will rarely make sense.

I realize that this thread is a few days old but I thought I'd chime in. I have a 650 G1 that originally came with an i5-4200M and I was able to upgrade it to the i7-4700MQ. Make sure you use a good thermal paste when swapping out processors and everything will go smoothly. I'm using it as it notmally would be used and my temps do not go over 60c using AS5.
