Pavilion TouchSmart 11

Hello everybody,

 

I am working on a project at the moment and one of the components i'm using is a Pavilion TouchSmart 11's motherboard. The AMD A6-1450 that it has at the moment is too slow for me, and I want to change it with an Intel Core 2 Duo P7350. Is this possible, because I don't want to accidentally destroy the motheroard by changing the cpu.

What is your Pavilion TouchSmart 11 ? Normally AMD A6-1450 is an APU processor and it is not upgradable. You need totally new motherboard that means new machine.
