This cpu does not support embedded platform.

Hi,

Thanks, I know about this but the confusion is that GS45 support both Embedded and Socket and in manufacturers docs SU3500 it is not embedded but the thickness of the notebook is quite confusing. What do you think????

Hello again,

Well, i have used both GS45 and GM45 board, both of them were using socket-wise cpu. I would assume that in your case, it would be socket as the cpu itself is not embedded, unless the ark.intel. website is wrong. :-)

Kind Regards,

Aryan.

Hello,

As far as i can see, the cpu SP9600 is compatible with GM45/GS45. But now the question whether Lenovo has validated this configuration. Otherwise, it wont work, you may get bios error, or the system may not even boot.

You may need to check with Lenovo for further information on this.

All the best,

Kind Regards,

Aryan.

I have to fk the warranty because i just wanted to finish my confusion once and for all. Because in the documents this CPU SU3500 IS NOT EMBEDDED BUT IN THE REALITY IT IS EMBEDDED. NOW 2 THINGS HERE EITHER INTEL IS RITE OR LENOVO IS SELLING SOMETHING ELSE IN THE NAME OF SU3500. INTEL AND LENOVO SHOULD CORRECT THEIR DOCUMENTS.
