    This is currently my computer(laptop):
    CPU: AMD A8-4500M APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 1.9Ghz
    RAM: 8gb
    OS: Windows 8
    Video card: AMD Radeon HD 7640G + 7600M Dual Graphics

    My computer handles some of the games pretty good for example; LoL, MW2, MW3, etc. but even if other games work too, it's laggy, and I just want a flawless computer.
    I'm thinking of replacing my CPU with this: Intel Core i7 4 cores, and it says something about overclocking? I'm not sure what it means, I'm not good at hardware stuff.
    Anyways, would that really improve my computer?
    Thanks, Nills.

    So getting Intel Core i7 would really improve my computer in general?

    Yes. i7 is much better than what you're using now - - + overclocking it = It's flawless.
    You're going to need a better GPU(s) aswell.. (Video Card(s))

    Good luck putting intel cpu in your amd motherboard

    Be sure to check motherboard compatibilities.. also physically upgrading laptops is usually tougher for beginners then desktops.. I recommend not upgrading your laptop unless you absolutely know what you are doing.

    Lol, don't even waste your money on upgrading your laptop, just buy a desktop.

    In a less condescending way: you can't update laptops like that very easily. Your best bet is most likely a desktop. Also, you nerd to consider socket types on CPUs when buying them.
