Upgrading Lenovo E430

[longmaivn]

Like the tittle said, I have an old E430 laptop , I have search over the net, some say I can but some say I can not.

Please help me to specify the maximum CPU spec I can put in it !

Thank you very much for your effort.

These are the CPUs listed for sale with that model. Using any of those should be safe, although there may be different revisions of the motherboards they used with them. Really the only way to know if you are seeing different reports of it working or not is to try it. Make sure you get the latest BIOS for your model first.
