Four cores and eight threads give it real headroom over the dual-core i3 and Celeron options that Toshiba also shipped in this chassis, which makes a board swap worth considering as an upgrade path rather than just a repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 18px;\"\u003eMemory and storage stay modular. Fit your own DDR4 SODIMMs, an M.2 SSD and a wireless card to complete the build. Installation is a technician-level job — transferring the board into the chassis, reconnecting the display, battery, antennas, speakers and I\/O, and reapplying thermal paste.
