My laptop has a p3 850MHz CPU in does anyone know if it will be a mobile processor, or a desktop processor, can I use it in a desktop pc if I took it out of the laptop?

This is a strange question but its just out of interest!!

DO you think its possible to upgrade the CPU??

The Laptop is an IPC Starnote! (Bad Name I know)

More than likely it is a mobile CPU. And chances are your not going to run it as a desktop CPU. And you might be able to upgrade it, but most laptops aren't designed to upgrade anything but the memory and the hard drive.

Nice rigs hehe... Seems like you like those trusty Raedon's and the Crucial's ram :D
