This is super cool. I had the same type of laptop but just with an amd a4 cpu instead of the higher end a6 or a8, but it wasn’t good enough to be worth upgrading
Nice video. Some of the heat might be from the Ram and SSD in addition to the cpu and the laptop being open might not let it get the best cooling that is possible
Yes my wife bought a toshiba laptop just like that nearly 10 years ago. She thought she was getting a bargain, but amd E low-end whatever processor in there was so sluggish out of box it was a torture to use. Unfortunately the cpu is soldered to motherboard so you cannot upgrade the cpu and end of story.
I have an old Acer Aspire Series e1-471 laptop, don't know what I'd upgraded bit the CPU can be changed and the Ram can go to 8gb, but idk if it can go to 16gb once upgrading the CPU. And I have no idea what CPU I'd upgrade it with.
I enjoyed the video, and I am not joking or making fun. Simply just sharing an observation. When he tells his plans at the start it made me think of Stewie discussing with Brian about the novel he's been working on.
I have got old toshiba satellite a500-17x laptop, I can only upgrade it to 8GB and I can't upgrade more than that. So I'm thinking about upgrade the motherboard, CPU and RAM but the problem is I would not be able to change the RAM, hard drive on the laptop bottom base and I would not be able to change the battery if I upgrade the motherboard. Can you help me with what I need to do before I start doing it??
Normally you can’t swap the motherboard on a laptop to one of a different model as all laptops have a different size and mounting ports for the motherboard. Unfortunately if you want to upgrade a laptop more than included board allowed your out of luck.
I’m sure it’s possible to 3d print a case that would work. I currently have a limited knowledge of 3d printing and modeling but it seems to be within the build area of many common printers. Thanks for this idea I may incorporate it into a future video.
@@misterfister1293 Some of the old laptops cpus are sottered in, but old Dells Laptops were not sottered in, example, i upgraded from i5-2410m To i7-2670QM with a rPGA988b (Pin Grid Array).
upgrade the CPU! a friend gave me lenovo V570 and has an I5. its surprising how much performance boost you get from a CPU upgrade. i bought an I7 to upgrade it. double cores and almost 1ghz more boost!
@@ElectronicsWizardry I hate that so much. Older i7 laptops had fully socketed cpus so you could upgrade them yourself, I wish they brought it back to the newer ones
Rabble? Did you mean ramble? Truthfully my man I think your criticism is unfair, if this was intended to be more professional then I would take no gripe with what you’ve said, but he’s just sharing his experience, and due to that he owes you no degree of professionalism.
Wow never knew you could do that, keep up the great videos man! Much more informative than most other channels.
upgrading a old laptop/desktop to the max specs is always fun
I love the title. Direct. Straight. It speaks to me.

i am watching a this video on the same laptop

good info thanks. i think you break things down perfect for my level of competence regarding tech. cool shit!
You are very underrated man ! Your vid is awsome
My mom has this same laptop and when she upgrades I will take it and upgrade

zou just have to add a little heat to melt the solder and remove the CPU
@@boatshoes8811 ya what use is that ? so you can put another of the same spec in?

Just upgrade it to the latest 9i core 12 cpu :-)
No idea if the CPU over there is soldered but if it is soldered, you have no luck in upgrading the CPU.
@@fordgalaxie3695
Nope, it's not Soldered.
I'm still trying to find what processor fits it though.
@@CEBph5997 well you could find out what socket your processor is sitting on first, the generation of the CPU may be a hint.

How to remove cpu in that kind of laptop to upgrade.?please make video for that. Thank you.
its a lot of the time impossible due to the cpu being soldered to the motherboard.

idk why but you sound like you're spiderman talking about computers where people don't listen
i have a strange addiction
my addiction:
me: watching video and looking at stuff for it
my laptop: updating steam and opens discord and all of a sudden shuts off

Well this laptop and unfortunately most new laptops have soldered cpus so there is no easy way to upgrade the cpu.

@@ElectronicsWizardry This laptop has an AMD cpu.
Anyone have a link to the parts he used?
My laptop HP ram 4gb and procecor is AMDE 1 2100 but it is very slow
ichanged the hard to SSD but still slow
If ichange ram laptop become fast or not?
What is the ram usage on the laptop? 4gb can be pretty limiting these days, but the cpu might also be your issue here.
@@ElectronicsWizardry the ram is DDR3
If you can upgrade to 8gb cheaply I would. 4gb is pretty limiting. But check cpu usage too as that cpu may be limiting you.
@@ElectronicsWizardry
Ok thank you bro ❤
clean the heatsink thats why its running hot.
What brand and model is that laptop?
looks like Toshiba Satellite C50
Can I upgrade Lenovo G580 cpu to i5
I get used cpu's on ebay to upgrade laptops
Can I have it😊
My laptop is probably from 2005 Ig it won't work
your camera work really needs work and can you slow down a bit you rabble far too fast.

Let’s be honest here. If he’s “working too fast” there is an option in yt settings to slow down the video
@@christianmccauley7340 maybe his autofocus is off?
hmmmm,that is Ryzen AMD processor
Um, nO, it's not, it's a A series or FX series
The brand is AMD and the product line is Ryzen so its AMD Ryzen not Ryzen AMD and no its not
