Processor for Macbook Pro

is it possible to change the processor in a MacbookPro 2.53GHz to a 2.8GHz?

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
the i7 MBP is the top one speedwise http://www.marketingtactics.com/Speedmark/
And no, there are no more powerful processor to be bought seperately since the processor is not upgradeable in a MAcBook Pro.

  • Does Apple retailers offer service to upgrade processors for Macbook pro?

    For instance, my macbook pro is running on an i5 processor and im looking to upgrade to i7. Does apple offer service to upgrade for you ? I'm just curious, I'm also wondering if people had even upgrade their processors themselves.

    The processor in a MacBook Pro is soldered to the main board and is not replaceable.

  • Will apple add 6MB cache processor for Macbook Pro 13?

    I have been a PC user all my life. Recently I decided to shop for a macbook pro as my next laptop. For portability reasons, I want to stick to 13 inch models. While most of the hardware configuration seems very good, I was a little disappointed that the 13 inch Macbook Pro model does not have a 6mb L2 cache processor option nor a dedicated graphics card. The Air seems to have the 6mb cache processor but not the latter, which I understand considering the small profile of the Air. Does anyone know if Apple might release a juiced up model of the 13 inch Macbook pro with better processor and graphics card?

    Nobody here would know as Apple does not discuss unannounced future products.

  • Most Powerful Processor for MacBook Pro 15''

    I am going to buy a new MacBook Pro 15", and I plan on using for heavy H.264/HDV Video editing and rendering. Because of this I need a powerful computer. I was originally going to get the Intel Core i7, but I heard that since it is only Dual-Core, there are other more powerful processors I can buy seperately. Is this true? And if so what processor should I buy?
    -Thanks

    toshiba 1.tb and 7200 RPM ?
    Those are same as use by Apple in the non-retina macbook Pro, Ive got piles of them, only a Hitachi is better.
    Toshiba HD are a hair noisy even by Toshiba own admission, but no big deal.
    I would NEVER buy from OWC merely for the reasons that their prices are miserable.
    Here you go,   $65

    Had the same problem; would have been nice if they had told s that we need an intel processor on our older Macs! I am up and running again.

  • The normal value of battery capacity for macbook pro

    Hi there,
         I noticed my battery full charge capacity value is way below the technical specification from Apple.
    For macbook pro 15" early 2011 version a 77.5W battery is built-in.
    However, so far after 4 cycle, my full charge capacity is 6913mAh.
    It seems that I missed something. Though I didn't really notice the initial value when it's brandnew.
         Statistically what's the average value of the new battery will be ? around 75W or 7500mAh? Any idea?

    Best battery info resource is here:

  • I bought the wrong version as I need it for macbook pro but somehow bought windows...help

    I guess I will have to wait until normal office hours.  I have no idea why it bought the window version as I did not realize that is what was selected.  I hope I can get it exchanged for the photoshop elements 13 for macbook pro retina display.     Anyone know if this is an easy switch and one they will do?

    When buying HD versions of shows, only the HD copy will automatically download now (probably due to requests from people who don't need/want the SD version and complained about it being forced on them). The SD copy can be downloaded from your purchases area in iTunes, though. On the main iTunes Store page, go to Purchases under the Quick Links and then select TV shows. Click the "Not On This Computer" button. Uncheck the "Download HD when available" box and you should then see the SD copies of the shows and be able to download them.
    Regards.

  • How can I know if my new internal hd for macbook pro is compatible?

    I have been trying to upgrade my internal HD for macbook pro early 2008 2.4 and have been having a hard time getting it to boot.  Problems with both WD and Seagate.  I am wondering if the problem is with Mavericks.  I got a good back up from Time Machine to load on the hybrid drive.  Then when I try to restart it shows the apply symbol with no chime and then a black screen comes over the blue screen with some code (strange problem I have never seen) I can see that all the data is on the drive.  I was able to partitian in disk utility.  Anything ringing a bell.  I have done several switches like this and this is the first time I have had so much trouble.  I reinstalled my old drive just to make sure there was not another hardward issue and everything is fine there.  In fact I have a new logic board freshly installed by mac. 

    Your machine has a SATA 2 interface and I'm sure the new drives are SATA 3. They should still step down and work though. It's possible your SATA cable is marginal and the newer drive is trying to demand more out of it than the old one did. A good test would be to put the new drive in an external enclosure and see if it works ok from there. If so, it's probably the cable.

    How did you install Mavericks on the new drive?
