Hello guys, am new in forum and sorry cuz my English is not perfect..

i have a big big problem..
i was buy an Acer aspire v3-571g with i7-3610QM CPU but after a year of using i burn the GPU (nvidia geforce gt 640m) so i want to buy a new laptop with a good GPU but lower CPU than my laptop so i can trade the CPUs...

i find the LENOVO IDEAPAD Y580A 59-377154 with Intel Core i5-3230M CPU
and i check that my CPU and this one have same socket (G2 988b) but my CPU i7 need to work 45W and i5 need 35W!!!

if i buy this laptop and i trade the CPUs can both laptops work without problem?

if i have problem with Watt can i do something to solve it?

did the BIOS have any problem in both laptops about to work another CPU? if yes can i solve it???

I really try to find the answers in google but i dont find any solutions...
Please Help Me!

Thanks for your time guys!!! Smile

Those laptops are offered with the i7 also, so it should be a drop-in-and-run scenario.

That is what Mavroxur was saying. you should have no problems with the new processor.
