Went from Pentium B940 to i5 2540M!
This video was filmed with my Google Pixel 5a.
Upgraded the 5400rpm to a 2.5 inch SSD, the dead battery to a new one that can be charged, the 5 gigs (One 1 gig and One 4 gig stick to Two 4 gig sticks), and the CPU. Went from the Pentium B940 to the i5 2540M.
Definitely a few more years left in it now! Some of the clips I recorded for the person directly but included them in this video. My desk is messy... please don't be too hard on me. Thanks for watching!!!!

I finally did it! Thanks to your tutorial and the advice you gave along the way. I successfully upgraded my G6 pavilion from A6-3420 to a A8-3500. WITHOUT a hiccup. My temps have been halved and I can now enjoy my laptop for a few more years. Thankyou!

@datguykevv2177 11 месяцев назад

Just asking but is that the fastest cpu for the amd version?

@JamesDutka 11 месяцев назад

There was one apu that cost 4-5X as much as the one I bought. Roughly £80-90.

Your reaction was the same as mine. I took apart the whole laptop when I lost a screw after changing the ram and was so HAPPY when I saw how easy it can be to upgrade the CPU. 😀

@TheBang911 6 месяцев назад

Man you’ve given me the confidence to do something similar on my old HP envy. Thankfully I won’t be replacing CPU as it’s a i7 albeit a 3rd gen. However I think it’s still good enough. So I will leave it. I’m going to do the rest as you did. Change the HDD to and SSD, also increase RAM and get myself another battery too. I might just add some thermal paste on the cpu if I’m brave enough to dissemble that far. Good job bro. Thanks again for this video.

@wwjoshdew 6 месяцев назад

good luck! less heat, less battery drain (having the fans always at full blast with old/bad thermal paste), and that slow hard drive spinning at thousands of rpm per second the entire time your laptop is on. I'm excited for you!! You can do it.

I bought a laptop model hp pavilion g6 2151sf in the state. This computer had a defective fan and the battery was out of order. I managed to resurrect the fan, I also took the opportunity to change the thermal paste and dust the PC after a day of testing the fan problem did not return. Currently this computer has 8 GB of RAM and an Intel 3 2350m processor. I would like to try to find an i7 processor

@davidbabic6121 2 года назад

@wwjoshdew That was a crazy improvment! Thanks for the Reply, yess it is my daily use computer. Unfortunantly after looking at my model: HP Pavillion g6-1015TU, I think that means it is the previous intel Generation. At the moment it has intel Core i5-480M. Is it still possible to increase to i7 or would that require a whole new 2nd generation mother board? If not the increse to 8GB Ram and SSD will still make a big inprovement. In your experience does switching to SSD and 8GB Ram increase runnning temperature? as my core temp can reach 95 sometimes 105 degrees. Thanks for posting the video it has inspired/ given confidence to update my laptop myself.

You have to do research and find out what the max your motherboard supports. Just find your serial number, type it in on your computers support site, and they have a supported cpu/memory list. That’s what I did and I saw that an i7 would work in this one. But it was like 4 times the cost as the i5.
