Hey! 

I have been pushing my PC to its limits recently and my Intel Core i3 10100 isn't cutting it, am I able to upgrade the core to an i7 or i9? What are my options? I looked long and far for the product specifications for my model but they don't seem to exist. I have more than enough RAM, and have run differing tests to determine it's my CPU that's holding my performance back. Thanks!

It appears that this PC is a desktop and you are posting the notebook/laptop section, but here is info.

I went to the support site and found this

If that is your PC, and it has the Stark motherboard, then there is hope.
