[Matt]

Hello everyone,

<---I know I might have posted this topic in a wrong place, or maybe the answer for my question is already somewhere else - if it is please let me know where I can find it --->

My problem is: I have been thinking of upgrading the CPU in my alienware area-51 m9750 R1 series (as in the subject ). Can someone please tell my what is the fastest CPU I can get for my machine?

My current CPU is

CPU Arch : 1 CPU - 2 Cores - 2 Threads
CPU PSN : Intel Core2 CPU T7200 @ 2.00GHz
CPU EXT : MMX, SSE (1, 2, 3, 3S), EM64T, VT-x
CPUID : 6.F.6 / Extended : 6.F
CPU Cache : L1 : 2 x 32 / 2 x 32 KB - L2 : 4096 KB
Core : Merom (65 nm) / Stepping : B2
Freq : 1995.08 MHz (166.26 * 12)

and my motherboard

MB Brand : alienware
MB Model : Area-51 m9750
NB : Intel i945PM rev 03
SB : Intel 82801GHM (ICH7-M DH) rev 0

Some m9750 systems were shipped with T7600, and that's the fastest socket M processor. So, you can upgrade to T7600, or T7600G - it's an unlocked version of T7600.

Can I not put in the T9xxx series processor? Someone told me I could. If not, why? What would I have to change in order to do that?
