    Default Is 2760p cpu soldered on?

    Or is it like the 2560p with a socket so you can upgrade it to a quad core? A quad 2760p would be a dream come true!

    i would wait to see what the 2760p's Ivy Bridge successor looks like. A 35watt Ivy Bridge quad would be ideal. Hopefully, HP will offer it as an option since it has the same TDP as the dual core CPUs.

    Really? I thought all full powered Elitebooks were PGA sockets. Is there a link to an online technical manual for the 2760p?

    According to the service manual, each motherboard with a specific CPU has its own part number.

    Didn't realize this myself until the issue was brought up. But in this case, I have no need to upgrade the CPU given what I use my 2760P for. I could see it lasting me 5 years+ .

    Sorry, I should have updated, but I confirmed that the CPU is soldered.
