Vostro 3550 CPU upgrade
Hello all,
I have to replace the CPU on my Vostro 3550, chipset HM67 if I remember correctly, and I've decided that's the right moment to look for more power.
The mainboard code is F3GY0 with integrated Radeon HD7650M 1GB video, G2 CPU socket.
My question is: How can I get a list of supported CPUs for this mainboard?
My current CPU is i5-2410M
I appreciate any feedback!

It uses a Sandy Bridge mobile CPU -- 35W or less TDP. The i7-2620 and i7-2640 are the two fastest ones.

Thanks!
Finally some info that makes sense. I guess the power limitation is related to the design of the cooling system.
