Microsoft Surface Pro X: Can I upgrade my Surface Pro 7 Processor?

Sat, 11 Oct 2025 17:16:14 -0700

I was looking at the specs for my surface pro 7. The processor it has is a Intel Core i5-1035G4 which is operating at 1.10GHz. However i noticed that the processor should be able to handle a “Max Turbo Frequency” of 3.70 GHz when using “Turbo Boost Technology.” I would like to use the processor at full speed but do not know how. Can I use the “Turbo Boost Technology” on my surface? If not, can I replace the processor with one that has a higher speed?

Microsoft Surface Pro X: Surface Pro X replacement adhesive

Tue, 07 Jan 2025 20:42:14 -0700

So I cannot find a precut adhesive for the surface pro X like they have for other units. I know that the adhesive used on the Pro X is a less annoying type due to the ifixit teardown. Can I just use the surface pro 9 adhesive and then trim it or what kind should I purchase?

Microsoft Surface Pro X: Are the PRO X and PRO 8 batteries the same?

Are the PRO X and PRO 8 batteries the same?
I have both tablets and I barely used PRO X, while PRO 8 has been in use for 3 years and I have to charge it twice a day...

so if i can replace one with the other, it will be great.

Microsoft Surface Pro X: Surface Pro X SSD back cover replacement?

Sat, 04 Feb 2023 18:14:12 -0700

Hello!

I recently lost the back SSD cover for my Surface Pro X. Since my surface is under warranty Microsoft was willing to help me fix it, except instead of sending me the small piece I need I would need to send in my current device, and have them send me a brand new one 6-8 days after they receive my "broken" device.

Although it's at no charge to me, I really don't want to send in a perfectly fine computer just to replace a small back piece. Instead of wasting time, a perfectly fine device, and emissions for transport, I want to see if there is a place where I can buy a replacement part. I have searched the internet far and wide trying to find a replacement with no luck.

If anyone knows if there is a place I can buy a replacement SSD cover/back panel for a Surface Pro X that would be awesome!

Microsoft Surface Pro X: Surface Pro X SSD Swap

Tue, 12 May 2020 15:50:41 -0700

I notice that the SSD in the Surface Pro X looks a little different than the pictures I have seen of potential replacements (still looking, have not found any available). The connector has only one notch and it appears quite a bit thicker. Is there some shielding that needs to be removed or moved to new SSD?
