HP DV7 Sandy Bridge upgrade to Ivy Bridge

‎06-13-2012 08:44 AM

I have an HP DV7 6b32us. With the latest bios update, is it possible to upgrade the cpu from the core i7 2670qm to the new Ivy Bridge Core i7 3720QM? The thermals and socket seem to be the same on both cpu's and I am interested in doing this because of the faster graphics on ivy bridge model. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
