Posted on Dec 13, 2009

I have a gateway 831gm. it has an Intel (Augsburg) 915G Motherboard and a Pentium 4 630 cpu 800MHz fsb & 2MB L2 cache. i've been looking for a cpu upgrade and saw that the Pentium E5200 Dual Core has the same 800MHz fsb and 2MB L2 cache. both are LGA775 socket. Is it possible to upgrade the cpu with this motherboard?

If both motherboards are LGA775 socket, then the next concern is whether or not the case is capable of having the new motherboard installed into it. Disconnect all power cables to all dv drives or cd drives and hard drives. Disconnect all ribbons from drives to the mother board. If you can get to all of the screws that hold the motherboard into the case, you get away without removing drives. Once you've got the motherboard then you can disconnect the power cable from the motherboard. Remove the memory chips, disconnect the sound cable from the old motherboard. install the memory chips onto the new mobo, Connect the power cable to the new mobo, then install the new mobo into the case. Replace the ribbons from the drives to the mobo, replace the power cables to the drives and reinstall the sound cable to the cd or dv drive. You should be done now.

Intel core tm duo cpu e4500 motherboard

Intel core tm duo cpu e4500 motherboard
Intel = Processor (CPU ) manufacturer
Intel Core tm = Trademark. The Intel Core is a Trademark from Intel
CPU stands for Central Processing Unit. Another term used is Microprocessor, or simply - Processor for short.
e4500 is an Intel Core2 Duo processor.
Maximum frequency rate ('Speed') is 2.2GigaHertz.
2MegaByte of L2 Cache. (2MB of L2 Cache)
800MegaHertz Front Side Bus. (800MHz FSB)

Tells me Nothing about the actual motherboard. Look on the motherboard for a Model Number. May be in center of motherboard. May be on edge of motherboard. May be in-between one of the expansion slots, on motherboard.

Post back in a Comment.

Also post what the problem is, in your best description.

Computer does not turn on. (Power Supply does not turn on)
Computer seems to turn on, but get No Signal on monitor, or Sleep Mode on monitor, or Power Saver Mode on monitor.
LED lights light up, and fans spin.

Cpu up grade

Yes sir.

The eMachines T5082 Desktop PC uses an Intel D102GGC2 motherboard,

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813121031

The motherboard chipset is an ATI Radeon Express 200,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_ATI_Chipsets#Comparison_of_Northbridges_2

Scroll down the chart under the - Model - heading.
ATI Radeon Xpress 200 for Intel.

Processors Supported;
Intel Pentium 4, Intel Core2

If the motherboard chipset will support an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, it will support an Intel Pentium D.

Plus you can always go to Intel Support, and look, lol!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_D_microprocessors#.22Presler.22_.2865_nm.29

So what are we talkin' about?
A Intel Pentium D, model 925 or model 930?

Up To a maximum frequency rate ('Speed'), of 3.0GigaHertz
L2 cache of 2 x 2MegaByte (2MB)
800MegaHertz Front Side Bus. (800MHz FSB)

FOLLOW Anti-Static Procedures.
THOROUGHLY clean the top of the Processor, and bottom of the Heatsink.
Properly apply fresh, new Thermal Paste.

Intel Pentium D Dual Core Processors:
Intel Pentium D 805 Dual Core Processor (2.66-GHz, 2x1MB L2 cache, 533-MHz FSB), Intel Pentium D 820 Dual Core Processor (2.8-GHz, 2x1MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB), Intel Pentium D 915 Dual Core Processor (2.8-GHz, 2x2MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB), Intel Pentium D 925 Dual Core Processor (3.0-GHz, 2x2MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB), Intel Pentium D 930 Dual Core Processor (3.0-GHz, 2x2MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB), Intel Pentium D 940 Dual Core Processor (3.2-GHz, 2x2MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB), Intel Pentium D 945 Dual Core Processor (3.4-GHz, 2x2MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB), Intel Pentium D 950 Dual Core Processor (3.4-GHz, 2x2MB L2 cache, 800 MHz FSB)

Unfortunately, these are old processors and I don't see any available new. Newegg.com lists a couple available as refurbished. You may be better off getting a new computer with either a Intel I3 or current AMD processor.

I wish that I had better news for you.

Need a new processor

http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/inspn_e1405?c=us&cs=22&l=en&s=dfh&~section=specs#tabtop

Select Tech Specs:

Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo Processor T5500 (1.66GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 667MHz FSB) Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo Processor T5600 (1.83GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 667MHz FSB) Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo Processor T7200 (2GHz, 4MB L2 Cache, 667MHz FSB) Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo Processor T7400 (2.16GHz, 4MB L2 Cache, 667MHz FSB) You can order the processor from Dell sales and then take it to a local computer shop like Fry's. And they can can install it for a good price. I normally would not recommend replacing a laptop processor unless you have done it previously several times.
