Hello !

I've got a PC HP All-in-One - 20-c011nf (Product specifications) and I would like to change the processor of my computer, which is a AMD E2-7110 APU with AMD Radeon R2 Graphics 1.80 GHz and it is very slow. 

It would be my first time that I change something in a PC (sorry) and I saw that : 

Processor upgrade information

  • Supports the AMD E2-7110, AMD A6-7310, AMD A8-7410 (Carrizo-L) Quad Core processors only. The processor is not upgradeable.

in the product specifications page.

 

Do I have to understand that I can't change my processor or I just can change it with a AMD A6-7310, or a AMD A8-7410 ?

 

Is there any possibility to change the processor ? If not, did they stuck the processor to the card or just the other processors aren't compatible ?

 

(Sorry in advance for my bad english)

 

Thank you in advance, 

Babar

Hi, Babar:

 

Unfortunately, the processor is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be upgraded.

 

The model series came with those processors and in order to upgrade the processor, you would have to replace the entire motherboard with one that comes with the A6 or A8 processor.

 

IMHO, such an upgrade would be expensive and not worth the time and effort assuming you could even find the motherboard you want.
