I have a Dell inspiron 1545. I want to upgrade it's ram from 4GB to 8GB. But the 1545 uses old ram, so 8GB's of ram is a bit costly. I've read that upgrading the CPU to the core 2 duo T9600 will help the 1545 to use the DDR3 ram instead of the expensive DDR2's. Is it right?
 
Solution
That is not correct. The DDR3 memory will not fit into the DDR2 slots. Swapping the CPU is completely independent from the memory question.
