Hello one question can the G62 Notebook PC laptop from the 2010, handle an Intel i7-640M CPU for an upgrade, since I have the Intel i3-350M CPU. I want to upgrade it since I am broke and this could be my life saver

Hi:

 

Chapter 1 of the service manual indicates the best processor HP offered in the model series was the  Intel Arrandale™ i7–620M processor, but I can't think of any reason why the i7-640M processor would not work just as well.
