Anyone here use an X230 with the quad-core mod? I'm looking into it and was wondering about the reliability and battery life compared to the stock i5-3320M.

X230 got CPU mod??

[–] Evv1L@mastodon.ml 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

@pastermil X230 had it for a long time. But you have to do a BGA rework, 'cause CPU is not socketed like on T-series of that era.

I mean... I'm aware it's possible in theory. Just never thought somebody actually doing BGA rework for laptop upgrade.
