Hi, I'd like to upgrade the cpu in a friends old computer, the cpu is dead cheap but would it work? The cpu is: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ 2.5 GHz Dual-Core CPU Processor ADO4800IAA5DO Socket AM2
the computer is an acer aspire T180 and I have the following info:
Summary
Operating System
Windows XP Professional 32-bit SP3
CPU
AMD Sempron 3200+ 49 °C
Manila 90nm Technology
RAM
2GB Single-Channel DDR2 @ 200MHz (4-4-4-12)
Motherboard
Acer EM61SM/EM61PM (Socket M2 ) 40 °C
Graphics
AL1707 A (1024x768@75Hz)
ATI Radeon HD 2400 256MB
Storage
76GB Hitachi HDS728080PLA380 (SATA) 45 °C
Optical Drives
HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GSA-H21N
Audio
Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device
Operating System
Windows XP Professional 32-bit SP3
Computer type: Desktop
Installation Date: 13/01/2007 01:48:33
I've seen some info stating that it can handle an Athlon 64 x2 but the TDP was Different and it was 65nm technology instead of the 90nm currently inside the machine. I'm not sure if any of this matters or not.Please help!
Thanks
