Hi everyone, just starting this thread if it feels a bit unusual. I own an old Toshiba Satellite L655D from 2012, running Windows 7, and it’s currently dual-booted between Linux Mint and Manjaro on its 320 GB internal drive. It has three gigabytes of RAM, though I might need to upgrade soon. The main challenge is getting Android apps to work—either via Anbox or by setting up a dual boot with Android-x86. Since the AMD Athlon in the motherboard doesn’t support SSSE3, I’m wondering if there are trustworthy places to buy or trade older laptop processors that match those requirements. Also, what’s the typical price range for something like this? Thanks in advance!

Confirm if the processor is compatible with upgrades.
