    CPU-Z and other software all say that my laptop has an i5 inside. Is there any way I can truly check whether it is an i5. I'm thinking that if it was an i5 then my laptop wouldn't power on. Cpuid also says it has 4 cores whereas the i3 it should be has only 2 cores.

    i3 to i5?


    Really appreciate the help.

    I don't have much more detail than the original post. The i5 won't start and most of the details on the back is too old and a bit crap! The i3 is a laptop I was considering to purchase.

    It looks like the there's a small chance I could get the i5 into the i3 laptop without too much work - but a very small chance.
    Also the Acers are a bit on the cheap side, so I suspect any old laptop may a bit 'challenging' too.

    Again, cheers for providing some help!

    i3 to i5?


    Hi, is it possible to swap an i3 (Acer 5741 i3-350-M) to an i5 (Acer 5751 which I think is a i5-2450 )?

    Is this feasible please?

    Many thanks!

    Intel Gives Core i3 and Core i5 Dual-Core Processors K0 Stepping Update

    Intel is giving some existing 32 nm "Clarkdale" based Core i3 and Core i5 processors an update. The processors will transition to the new K0 stepping from the existing C2 stepping. The parts that will be made on the K0 silicon are Core i3 models 530 (new sSPEC: SLBX7), 540 (new sSPEC: SLBTD) and Core i5 models 650 (new sSPEC: SLBTJ), 660/661 (SLBTK/SLBTB), 670 (SLBTL). Newer and upcoming models such as the i3-550, i3-560, i5-665K, and i5-680 are already being built on the K0 stepping die. Motherboards will require a BIOS update to support the new K0 stepping processors.

    The K0 stepping change includes the following highlights:
    • New S-spec and MM numbers for the converting products
    • Extended CPUID will change from 0x00020652 to 0x00020655
    • Host RevID will change from 0x12 to 0x18
    • K0 stepping package is pin compatible with C2 stepping package
    • Adds Processor Context ID (PCID) support
    The revised older SKUs that are built on K0 stepping will be market-available by October 16.
