I have a HP pavilion ZE4500 and it has xp2200+ on it and I was wondering what's max cpu speed i can put on the mb?

Are you looking to upgrade the processor? If so, we need additional information. The ZE4500 doesn't have a specific set of hardware components since it is a customizable setup (I've even seen ZE4500s with Intel chips rather than AMD). Run Everest and give us all the details relating to your motherboard. This will help us answer your question.

On a side note, why are you looking to upgrade? What are you wanting your machine to do that it doesn't currently? Or are you just looking to get a bit more speed out of it?

I have the ze4500 with the AMD XP2200+ cpu and I want to know what's the max speed processor I could put in for more speed.

You didn't answer any of my questions.

Knowing which processor you currently have doesn't give us enough information to determine which processor is the fastest one that your board can support.

This is some advice for you. Please don't take it as an insult. If you don't know enough about your system to know how to determine what processors are compatible with it, you shouldn't be trying to upgrade it. Laptops are very delicate machines that are not at all forgiving. If you don't have experience working with machines, you can damage your laptop while trying to perform the upgrade.

I didnt know I could possibly upgrade the cpu in my hp ze4560us laptop. Looks like it has a socket a AMD processor in it. You can see my version below. Im not a AMD user, so Im not sure how much faster I can go, and if it is even worth it. Right now its the AMD Mobile version ment to compare with the Mobile p4.

Thanks in advance...
