Hello,
I own an old hp envy 23 (product no. C3S97EA#ABZ) and would like to do an upgrade that increases the ram to the maximum supported and possibly also improves the cpu.
Can you tell me how much ram supports at most and the frequency?
Is it possible to replace the CPU? Which is the most powerful processor that I could put in place of the one currently present?
Thank you.
(English isn't my first language, so please excuse any mistakes.)
