Hi so I'm deciding to upgrade my asus k55n laptop http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834230960 I believe these are the exact same specs but I bought it on the Canadian site. I want to upgrade the Processor but I don't know if this will fit or be compatible? http://www.ebay.ca/sch/Computer-Components-Parts-/175673/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=a10+5750&_sop=15. My ram is pretty trash I think it's running at 800mhz or something like that i'm not too tech heavy so i'm not sure so I want to upgrade that to 1600mhz or higher ram with 2x4gb sticks since i only have single channel ram at the moment. My last upgrade would be fantastic if someone would tell me if a normal SSD would be able to fit into a laptop, googled it but not entirely sure because they come in different sizes, but I will use that for my windows files, then using a caddy case replacing the dvd drive and using my current harddrive as my storage. Thanks

About A10-5750M I cannot tell for 100% that this CPU will work with your laptop even if have this same socket type.

Both CPUs have different architecture and A10-5750M can be not recognised by motherboard bios.

You upgrade path that work for 100% is A10-4600M have 50% bigger GPU core and better CPU clocks + 30-85% more FPS
