Hi,

It is not possible to upgrade the CPU as it is integrated on the motherboard (soldered) and is not upgradable. It is not even possible to replace the motherboard with one with a more "powerful" CPU, as you have the most "powerful" one in that series of notebooks (page 67 of the service manual)

Now, an upgrade that would give a great boost to everyday performance of the notebook, would be to replace the 2.5" HDD with a 2,5" SATA3 SSD such as the 2.5" Samsung 860 Evo and then reinstall the OS on the SSD.

 

Hope it helps,

David
