Studio 1735

Hi,

Have a Dell studio 1735 which I dearly love, mostly because of the lighted KB.

I would like to upgrade to the highest level.  In the old days, one could pop the

motherboard, replace it with a newer one and "bang" new computer. Is it possible

to do the same with this laptop? Any suggestions will help.

Ron

You could upgrade up to certain point the CPU and GPU. Installing another mainboard from another (better) model might not always work for notebooks in general.

Thanks for the info.

I wonder what the best cpu and motherboard could be purchased when the 1735 was available.  What about the top 1737 motherboard and cpu?
