T3200 Upgrade

  • 0

Hello!

Is there anyone who can tell me exactly was is the most powerfull processor that i can replace my T3200 with?
I have read all the other topics about the T3200 processor but thet do not apply to me.
I am limited by my processor in my day to day work and i do not have the money to buy a newer and more powerful laptop.
It would be ideal if someone could help me with a list of higher-end processors that i can replace my T3200 with. Something like a T7xxx, T8xxx or T9xxx series.
From my understanding, i belive the replacement processor should also have the FSB at 667 mhz as the T3200 in order to use it at full capacity, because if i get a processor that can handle fsb 1033 it will be limited at 667 so it’s operating speed will alsi be limite. Am right? I need something with a high Bus/Core Ratio…

If anyone could help, i would be very grateful. Thank you!

  1. While I don’t doubt you had a performance increase, your explanation as to why is flawed. Sync/async has to do with the CPU:DRAM ratio. Sync = 1:1 ratio, async = anything else. What I think you were referring to is running the memory in single channel vs dual channel mode. Although running RAM in dual channel mode theoretically doubles the available memory bandwidth, the actual performance boost is minimal. Dual channel / double bandwidth does NOT equate to double memory performance, in fact, the percentage increase is in the single digits. See the following:

    Also, there is no way that reducing your friend’s RAM amount from 2GB single channel to 1GB dual channel boosted performance.
