I guess unfortunately you can not. But it is a low level guess, I have never heard about it.

Of course you can :
- if it isn't solder on the motherboard
- if you step with the same generation/family (chipset and power)

You can also have issue with heat because your new cpu is hotter and the breath system isn't properly calibrated (or the sensor) so it will turn at lowest speed or jump into limp mode.

It is possible, but I never said easy, it will strongly depend on your specific computer.

hahhahah naaah Cross works perfectly now so bye bye Mac, i hate it whatsoever, and I'll stick to my lovely Asus and win 7, but my next investment will definitely be something that is not made by Jobs.

On any new purchase just make sure that you can increase RAM. I still use an old laptop running XP just for djing. The only issue I ran into was when I went to a 1TB hard drive. Screen would freeze for longer then I would have liked while song was being located. Music never stopped but it was nerve racking while doing a gig. Dropped to a 500 GB hard drive and the problem went away. Thought about getting a new laptop but why fix what isn't broken. Took the saved up funds and bought a new Vfx controller. I will let you know how it works.

Your issue was probably access time or transfer rate with the 1TB.

So here I am, three months later, saved (for a student) a lot of money (~900€) and now there is this little question again: Mac or PC :) Now I see it much clearer and decided for a PC/Laptop:

What do you think of it?

Thanks again for all recommendations and greetings,
