Always good to check if the CPU is compatible with your laptop. I couldn't find any documentation for my HP envy 15. But I managed to find similar laptop models with the same CPU, so I decided to take a chance and it works! Battery hours dropped by 2 hours after the upgrade but at least its twice as fast as my previous i5-4200m. I am using this as a desktop replacement until I build my new rig. And it seems to be holding up quiet well. I found some slowdown issues but I believe there is something to do with Windows 10 not liking the configuration/ possible driver issues. But I don't have the time to re-install it and confirm that issue. Conclusion: Cheap, Uses more power - Battery hours drop, Fast with hyper-threading, good for VMs.
