Hello,

I have a local brand laptop and I want to upgrade my crappy cpu. Currently it has an intel b940

Here are some printscreens from cpu-z

Can I buy an i3,i5 or i7 and what models?
My current tdp is 35. Can I go to 45? Do I need to change my charger?

I have read so many different opinions, in different forums and I am confused!!

For you particular socket:

Supported processors

Although all microprocessors from the table below physically fit into the socket, not all of them may be supported by your motherboard. For that reason before upgrading to any model from this list below, please make sure that the CPU is compatible with the motherboard. See "Upgrading socket G2 motherboards" section further below for tips on how to determine which processors are supported by specific motherboard.
