@todo1. What number of your motherboard? Mine is 685404-601. Several months ago I tryed to install the i7-3632QM to HP 2570p with the motherboard 685404-101 but it didn't work. I even couldn't enter bios. It works with two cores processor only. You can check the number under the RAM.  

 

I finally landed on cheapest 3610qm, as said in OP- grab any of quad cores...

So, I dont have too demanded wishes about performance and also not want to upgrade cooling system.

How easiest to limit 35w cpu in windows 7 to stay on safe side but not limit it too much and get too bad performance?

thanks @batyanko

hi, I am new on this expert forum and have some questions:

1. If I want to upgrade to any quad core cpu (even 35W 36x2) do I need hw modding of cooling sub system?

2. If reduce quad core cpu to non turbo boost speeds, will it be slower than normal i5 or i7 dual core?

thanks
