I have been told it is possible to change the CPU on this laptop, and I've seen a number of articles on the web with instructions how to do so.

My problem is where do I buy a new CPU from? There seems to be a few American sites, but can't seem to find any UK sellers.

OK ive decided im going to custom build a desktop pc, but ive got relatively low budget of about £200.
I havent started looking at parts yet but i figured the processor would be the place to start, then i could work from there. Any suggestions on which proccessors are good/bad also where are the bes more...

Can anyone tell me what sort of chip I should be looking for in a desktop PC. I'd like something that my kids can play first person shooter games on, edit photos, play videos etc.

Not sure if its nationwide, but I got this from the store on Alcester Road in Birmingham.

Seems like a good deal, cheapest I've found is £29 on a site that doesn't have stock. And at £79 at Additions Direct (which seems so overpriced)

I'd greatly appreciate any help. I'm very new to PC building myself and I'm helping out a friend with a £500 budget for a new PC which is capable of doing the Sims 3, Flight Simulator X and Google Sketchup at high settings. Not totally maxed out, but good enough to make the games look good and play more...

I'm not sure how this will go down. CeX are selling used 1-core Intel Celerons and Pentium 4s for very little. I don't know much about PC building, but if your motherboard supports it, it would be a good backup. I wouldn't recommend these for daily use. Most are instore but a few you can order onlin more...

Sorry if this is a simple question but when you do things like editing photos in photoshop or render videos with video editing software, is the workload done by the Cpu or is it the graphics card that processes it?

I just wanted to know what does what out of the two in general?
