Can I replace the CPU and which one

Hi:

 

That would not be possible as the CPU is an integral part of the motherboard.

 

To upgrade, you would have to replace the motherboard with one listed in your notebook's service manual that may come with a better processor.

 

If you could find the part it would be very expensive to do such an upgrade.

 

Better to sell your notebook and buy another one with a better processor.
