  1. Question

    Omkar –

    I can upgrade RAM of this Lenovo IdeaPad 320 laptop and how many price will take to upgrade the eam

    • Dan –

      You should check in your laptop specs whether it has its RAM soldered onto the motherboard or there’s a real RAM slot. If there’s a RAM slot you can for example insert an 8GB DDR4 RAM module in it for around $40 USD.

  2. Question

    Omkar –

    Can I connect PC to this Lenovo laptop to improve his externally Processor and his RAM and performance.

    • Dan –

      It’s not possible, unfortunately. One thing you can do is to connect to that PC via a remote desktop app and use the PC that way. But some things won’t work smoothly via remote desktop, like video playback or gaming.

  3. Question

    Hasan –

    What could be the cost of AMD Processor E2-9000e radeon r2

    • Dan –

      Hi, it’s soldered onto the motherboard, so it can’t be separated from the motherboard and sold separately. You can only sell or buy the whole motherboard for a specific laptop model. If the E2-9000e based motherboard for that particular notebook model is available on the market, the price will depend on that model.

      Sir this is Use for development or not

    H –

    Well I gotta say it was worth the price which was not alot compared to a few of the machines I use to own.

    Not bad. My wife uses it basically to type, watch movies and listen to music. I was able to get Call of Duty MW3 to work. If you tweak the graphics settings properly, it actually works. My advice is if you have a laptop like this, get rid off any junk that could possibly chew up your RAM and processing speed. Not recommended for intense gaming or graphics work. But, if you’re looking for a machine to perform basic tasks, this is it.

  5. Isiaka –

    PLEASE WHICH PROCESSOR IS CLOSE IN SPECIFICATION TO AMD E2 9000E RADEON R2

    • Dan –

      Among the popular ones are some older dual-core Intel Celerons, from year 2015-2016-2017. For example, Celeron N3060.

  6. f f –

    I want to take this computer to the bin

    • Wet Gato –

      It works great with linux

  7. Question

    Sakthivel –

    Can I upgrade from AMD E2-9000e to ryzen 3?

    • Dan –

      No, unfortunately. The processor isn’t upgradeable, just like it isn’t in almost all notebook models.

  8. Question

    demmey –

    can i run fifa 18 on this processor with 4 gb ram

    • Charles –

      Probably not, because it won’t be powerful enough to run it, as well as the fact that it’ll be running on the chip’s integrated graphics.

  9. Question

    mooka –

    how can i improve the performance of this AMD E2 9000e processor and what kind of games can be played in such pcs

    • Dan –

      Unfortunately, you can’t improve performance of the processor itself. What you can do is to increase RAM if you have less than 8GB, add dual-channel memory (2x4GB instead of 1x8GB) if you have two memory slots in your laptop, and upgrade your hard drive to a solid state drive (improves everyday work a lot). The E2-9000e is among the slowest laptop processors and it isn’t suitable for gaming. You can play only the lightest browser-based games and maybe some light PC games like League of Legends and Minecraft on the lowest graphics detail settings and resolutions. Having dual-channel RAM helps a lot with gaming performance.

      Additionally, you can close / disable apps you don’t need.

    • David –

      What’s the generation of this laptop?

    • Dan –

      Hi, this processor for laptops was released in 2017. It’s an AMD E-series chip, which doesn’t have its generation in the name like the Intel Core i-series do. Overall, today it’s a quite outdated CPU, with weak performance in comparison to newer laptop processors.

  10. 1 out of 5 AWFUL

    Joseph –

    This is the worst computer I have ever used, it is slower than a snail and a turtle put together, it SUCKS at gaming and even watching an HD video freezes and lasts for almost 30 seconds, it can’t support Zoom and google and that is extremely disappointing and frustrating.

    In conclusion a lousy computer and if you wanted to buy it, you’d better get another one.

  11. Question

    Liam –

    Can I start programming and creating websites like html and css with this laptop?

    • Dan –

      Hi, html / css and similar programming tasks don’t require a lot of processing power. However, the AMD E2-9000e is among the weakest processors and you may experience slowdowns even in these light tasks. I would recommend at least lower mid range processor like the AMD Ryzen 3 or Intel Core i3, combined with at least 8GB RAM, and a solid state drive instead of a slow hard drive.

  12. Question

    DMJJ DISSANAYAKA –

    Can I upgrade AMD E2 -9000E PROCESSOR to AMD Ryzen 3 3200G PROCESSOR

    • Dan –

      No, unfortunately. The E2 -9000E and almost all other laptop processors aren’t upgradeable. They’re soldered onto the motherboards.

  13. Question

    manish kumar –

    what is the price AMD E2-9000e Radeon
    Laptop

    • Green Up –

      20,000 Rupees

    • Deepak –

      Can i update it to higher version which one is best…

  14. John –

    Awful, further marred on HP 245 G7 by the fact that SATA-3 Disk runs on SATA-2 interface, SSD does NOT IMPROVE ANYTHING, but it is a useful door stop, albeit expensive,

    • blah –

      Just purchased this same laptop and very let down by the performance overall. It barely runs simple tasks like web browsing and video playback

    • hrushi –

      i agree. even mundane tasks seems like climbing a wall without any assistance. simply a waste of money.

  15. rich –

    this computer cannot even play the theme song from the Everybody Up iTool from Oxford University Press. As I use 8 computers this is all I bought the thing for and I am shocked.

  16. Hamid –

    Can I upgrade it to any other processor

    • Dan Z –

      Hi, laptop processors in most laptop models today are soldered onto the motherboard and not upgradeable, including the AMD E2-9000e.

    james –

    This is by far the slowest most frustrating and pathetic computer I have ever owned. Can’t believe Best Buy would even carry it. I bought it in an emergency and did not check the reviews… BIG MISTAKE. It takes exactly 37 second from hitting the Chrome Icon to actually getting a web page. I swear I would put my 1985 Commodore 64 against it for a processor speed battle and my money’s on the Commodore.

    • Jim –

      I’m gonna have to disagree with you. I just finished working on one and it’s not bad at all for speed. Mind you, if you load them up with garbage………….what do you expect. If kept clean of resource robbing programs and windows bloatware, they perform as expected imo.

    R R –

    Awful…. just awful. You can’t even open outlook without it hanging. I don’t think I had a computer this slow even back in the 90s.

    Angga –

    I got to try this processor on HP 14-CM00095AU, and I was astonished on how BAD this processor is. I even tried to update amd drive in hpe that the processor will have better performance to no avail.
    I suggest anyone already bought laptop with this processor to buy good SSD (WD Blue, Samsung 860, etc) to complement this super slow processor.

  20. Ryan –

    AMD E2-9000e is a medium performance prossesor it is same to intel core i3 you can play games in 25-35 Fps but it is really a good prossesor for medium gaming performance. you should delete useless files. you should update your graphics card and prossesor drivers for better gaming performance.and you can play GTA IV pretty good (medium-low)20-25 fps.in it

    • Devel Kumar –

      how would you run gta 4 in this crap!!

  21. 1 out of 5

    Smith –

    This processor struggles to get anything done. Whether you’re simply just browsing websites or using Microsoft Word for your work, it’s not worth it. Absolutely horrible and not worth the purchase. From my personal experience, the processor is just about enough to run Windows 10 but anything else, no.

      Riley –

      I’m really glad I found this review and it really helped me alot. I got a Windows 10 HP laptop to replace my old Windows 7 laptop on X-mas day and was confused why my old laptop could handle certain programs better than my new one? Don’t get me wrong my old laptop would randomly freeze whenever i would play a game or watch a video but when it wasn’t doing that it was working fine. So i decided to do some research and i figured out my CPU was the AMD Processor E2-9000e and looked at some reviews and only now did i figure out how horrible it was. honestly i wouldn’t recommend anyone this CPU to anybody if you need a CPU don’t get this one It’s slow, Buggy and just a general nuisance wouldn’t recommend at all.

  22. John IL –

    Well its certainly pathetically slow chip. Battery life isn’t going to fix the terrible experience using this chip. Dell is using this chip in cheap 11″ 3000 series replacing the Celeron 3060 but its not a big improvement for sure.

    • Josh –

      This Prepossessing chip is Mind blowing slow Yawn why bother putting this in any Loptop

    • ch –

      converted my 14 inch laptop to cloudready….works well now with this processor.windows was to much for it to handle

    • CAN I PLAY GTA V WITH THIS PROCESSOR? –

      Hey Can I play Grand Theft Auto V on this processor with 4 GB ram?? plz tell anyone??

    • Dan –

      Unfortunately not. This is one of the slowest laptop processors currently and it has very weak integrated graphics. They are too weak for GTA 5. RAM size of only 4GB is also problematic. You’ll need at least 8GB. You might be able to start the game, but frame rates would be very low and unplayable.
