Are Notebook Processor Upgrades Worth The Effort? Installing a better, faster processor is probably not worth the trouble. Notebook motherboards are not designed for processor upgrades-although you could certainly install an identical replacement if yours has died. If you did somehow manage to install a more powerful CPU, you'd now have a cooling problem, possible memory issues, etc. This upgrade is almost never a viable option in a notebook; if you really can't live with your current processor, then it's time for a new computer.
