@ImaNoob , welcome to the forum.

 

I have reviewed some videos on your computer model.  It doesn't appear to have anything out of the ordinary to remove when upgrading your processor.  The main thing is to go slowly.  I always recommend using an Anti-static wrist band to reduce the possibility of damaging the processor or other components.  There are numerous videos online for upgrading the processor, but I couldn't find any for your model.  Here is a Guide provided by HP:  https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/bph07139
