What is the installed processor?

 

If you have the Intel Core i7-720QM  processor installed, you can upgrade it to an Intel Core i7-820QM processor.

 

Ifyou already have the Intel Core i7-820QM processor installed, that is the best processor for your notebook's systemboard's chipset.

 

Here is the applicable Maintenence & Service guide for your notebook.
