Product: HP Pavilion g7-1316dx Notebook PC
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

I have a HP Pavilion G7-1316dx notebook PC With the  A60M UMA motherboard and the A4-3305 processor.

 

I want to upgrade the processor to the A8-3530MX or the A8-3550MX will this motherboard recognize either of these?

Will I need to change the Bios settings or update the Bios firmware to get this to work?

 

Thanks a bunch

Hi:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

Chapter 1 has the supported AMD processors.

 

Looks like the best one you can install would be the AMD A8-3520M.
