A6-4400m upgrade to A10-5750M will it work?

[saitamalor]

So I have researched this stupid topic all day and guess what I find. JUNK! LITERALLY! I find out that so many people have tried this but they never said if it worked or not and I am just so god damn angry!! I have an hp pavillion g4-2235dx and I don't know if its motherboard will accept the apu or not my bios version is f.26 so someone if you have tried this please tell me!!! So i don't have to risk it and just buy the A10-4600M

According to game debate the 1600mhz ram makes the 8650G seem just like an overclocked 7660G but with 1866mhz ram you get 933mhz memory clock speed and your memory bandwidth goes up to 29.9GB/sec a pretty significant difference and also the default vram should be 768mb according to the internet.

Well I found a 2x4 8gb ram 1866mhz on ebay for only $44 and i will buy it and see if there's any big difference in performance.

Yes, please post and let me know how that changes things. My readings are identical to yours ... bandwidth 25.6 and mem clock 800.

How are you liking the speed of the processor - a bit nicer than the 4400m isn't it?

I'm loving the A10-5750M it is so much better than the A6-4400M I am so happy that I upgraded. Browsing seems much faster and I can finally watch youtube videos at 1080p60. Although gaming is only slightly better due to the gpu and the 1600mhz ram.

I AM FURIOUS! I RECEIVED THE RAM STICKS TODAY BUT ONLY ONE WAS THE CORRECT ONE I ORDERED THE OTHER WAS JUST A PLAIN OLD 1600MHZ RAM STICK I WAITED SO LONG FOR THESE RAM STICKS I AM SO DISAPPOINTED!

Wow ... how annoying is that!

What bios version are you using? I am on f.68 and after installing the A10 5750m from an A6 4400m, I only get a black screen when I start my laptop. What is wrong here? Anyone know?

 

[saitamalor]

I had a black screen too all I did was wait until I got into windows

How long did you wait? Also what version was your bios? Looking like f.68 isn't compatible and I'm having trouble telling back to f.50. Going to try f.27 next.

My bios is f.26 ... it handled the upgrade from the 4400 to the 5750 just fine and recognizes 16 gb of ram. I've had no experience with the f.68 or the f.50 bios
