Dell XPS CPU upgrade

Redmint · 13 Jan 2012 at 17:35

Quick question, does anyone know if the CPUs are upgradable on the current generation of Dell XPS laptops? Had a search on google and all I could find was a video showing how it was done on the old M1530 XPS machines (the Core 2 ones).

I know the XPS 17" ones are, l702x

Good way of finding out is trying to find the dell service manual for your laptop, It will show you what you need to know!

When i got my xps i looked at it, it is a fairly involved process, but it can be done. The manual is somwhere silly on the website.
