DELL Latitude 5480 Intel Motherboard i5-7440HQ 2.8 GHz 8J661

Genuine Dell Latitude 5480 motherboard

This genuine Dell motherboard is built for the Latitude 5480 laptop and comes with an Intel Core i5-7440HQ processor soldered on board. It restores the original factory specification for owners who need a direct replacement part. The board includes integrated graphics and all the connectivity the chassis was designed around.

Upgrade from a failed or lower-spec board

It replaces a damaged system board or a unit originally fitted with a slower CPU, delivering the full 2.8 GHz quad-core performance of the i5-7440HQ. The swap is worthwhile when the existing board has developed faults such as no POST, port failures or thermal throttling that a reflow cannot fix. Matching the 8J661 part number guarantees mechanical and electrical fit without BIOS surprises.

Sustained load behaviour in the Latitude chassis

Under continuous multi-threaded work the i5-7440HQ runs at its rated 2.8 GHz base clock within the laptop's cooling limits. The integrated graphics share system memory and maintain stable frame output during long video playback or light compute tasks. Thermal management follows the original Dell fan curve, so temperatures stay consistent with the factory design envelope.
