thiagod Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Hi, with prema mod is possible to make a cpu upgrade to ibtel i7 4rd generation? P150em datasheet says that only 3rd generations are compatible.. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 nope. Only Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge Mobile CPUs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Haswell CPUs suck anyway. They throttle, overheat like crazy and the silicon lottery has mainly losers drawing short straws with 4th Gen Intel processors. They only draw less power at idle. Under load all but the low voltage turds designed for Ultrabooks draw more power, and the low TDP options offer lackluster performance. You're much better off with a Sandy or Ivy Bridge CPU.

TomJGX Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 +1000... This was one of the main reasons why I decided to get the M17x R4 instead of the new AW17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djask Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I've owned both the 3630QM and the Haswell equivalent, the 4700MQ, but I have to say, I saw no standout gains in performance. I don't think its worth it to upgrade, you might as well wait for the next gen, (Broadwell IIRC). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quaddragone Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 The reason you cant upgrade to 4th gen is cos of the number of physical socket pin, Haswell is 1150 socket as opposed to 1155 / 1156 socket in the previous generations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m00nspeell Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Difference between ivy bridge and Ivy Bridge and Haswell is about 4-6% improvement in cpu performance, and minor minor update in gpu performance. Not worse the update. thiagod i recommend to change your processor with i7 3920xm or 3940xm - one of the powerful processor in the world (p150em support all i7 3rd generation). Also Prema testing gtx 780m on clevo p150em:D. P150em with 3940xm and a gtx780 will be a damn powerful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
