Good, cheap upgrade that can give an older laptop a little more usable life
1 of 1 found this helpful This is getting to be a pretty old processor, but there are a lot of perfectly functional Core2Duo laptops running around that are easily upgradable. I installed this T9500 in an old Sony VAIO VGN-NW240F to give it a new lease on life, and it's easily as fast as my tablet - except with a full keyboard and large display. It took a machine that was destined for the thrift store or dumpster and turned it back into a machine I carry with me frequently.
To be sure, it's not going to make an old Core 2 machine feel like any reasonably priced modern system, but my upgraded VAIO is now faster than some of the *new* low-end computers sold at places like Walmart. It definitely will trounce anything with an Atom or Pentium CPU. The best use for this CPU is to upgrade older machines and use them as Chromebooks, but it runs well under Linux as well.
Given I only paid $30 for this one, I consider it well worth the investment. I'm writing this review on the Sony right now.
