Product: Pavilion 15-aw017no
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Dear forum, I'd like to upgrade the CPU on my Pavillion. Currently have the standard AMD A10-9600P Radeon 5 @2.40 GHZ (4 Cores) installed. Would like to change this out for something with a bit more performance.

 

Just how would I go about finding out which newer AMD CPUs would be compatible with the motherboard and battery? Just don't want to get something that's not compatible.

 

Cheers!
