Hi Adammac452.

As you have an AMD motherboard you can only fit AMD Socket FT1 processors. The Graphics is also integrated into this CPU. As far as I know, the only one quicker than your E-350 that will fit is the E-450 which is 1.65 GHz and not worth the cost of the upgrade.

You can increase the RAM up to a maximum of 8GB.

Thanks Blencogo,

But could I fit a new motherboard as well as the Processor? What motherboard does a i3 processor need? The graphics card can work with socket 755 and1155 Intel and all amd motherboards So could i do that?

Thanks again,

Adam

Hi Adam,

You could do all these things but I suspect it would cost more than buying a new laptop. The motherboard replacement would be expensive and you cannot be sure everything would be compatible when rebuilt.

You can buy a new VPCEH3N1E for £499 with a second generation i5 (up to 3.10GHz with turbo boost) processor, 500GB HDD and 4GB RAM.
