I recently bought a used E1505 off someone and am looking to upgrade the processor. It currently has a T2400 Intel Core Duo 1.83 GHZ processor and I want to upgrade it to a T7200 Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GHZ processor. My question is will I have problems with the cooling system that came with the T2400 chip? Will I need to get a new cooling system? Also can I just swap the chips or do I need to upgrade the BIOS in order to have the computer recognize the new chip? Will I see a big difference between the chips as far as performance? Also is there a good program that will allow me to monitor the temp of my CPU and GPU and what is a good temp to keep them at? The computer came with the 256 ATI X1400 video card. Thanks for you help.
