Salam all pg members! :)
Ok as the title says, I need help with my laptop, actually 2 laptops,
My dad's friend gifted us 3 new laptops(y)! Yeah 3 laptops, all are of dell.
One is Dell Vostro 3300 Notebook.
Few specs: Windows 7,Core i5 M560 @2,57ghz 2.66ghz
3gb ram
300gb hdd etc
2 others are of same model
i.e. Dell Inspiron 15 3521
Specs: Core i3 @1.50ghz
2gb ram(Though it's box says it has 4gb, but it only shows 2gb :mad:)
Windows 8
500gb hdd
my dad already has one, so he gifted one core i3 to someone,
My elder brother also has one so he didn't took it
So i5 and i3 belong to me :p
I was wondering as vostro 3300 has i5,
Can't I swap it's motherboard with the i3 one, so the Inspiron 15 3521 gets the i5 processor?
Is it possible?
You guys would say sell both of them and buy a i7 instead, but I want to gift the vostro 3300 to my grandmother! I dont want the 3300 because it has a smaller screen 13.2inch while the 3521 has 15.6inch thats why :p
so please tell me is it possible to swap the processor/motherboard?
Regards

due to tiredness, would you tell me the processesors model number?
so i can get you the price for the laptop for selling

EDIT: if the processesor is of the same LGA Socket. then yes you can probably change it.
i recommend selling it.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
