Hi:

 

Unfortunately, that would not be possible.

 

You cannot install an Intel processor in an AMD-based notebook, and you can't install an AMD processor in an Intel based notebook.

 

Check your notebook's service manual for the list of supported AMD processors, or even if the processor can be upgraded.

 

Since around 2014, all notebook processors are now integral parts of the motherboard and the only way to upgrade those would be to replace the motherboard.

I am planning on changing the motherboard and was thinking if i can change the motherboard into an intel processor instead of an AMD processor 

Is that possible?

I would need to know the full model number or product number of your notebook to check the service manual to see if the model series supports both AMD and Intel processor motherboards.

 

There are thousands of HP 15 notebooks with the Beats audio.

Hi:

 

According to the model number you posted that notebook is supposed to have come with an Intel Core i5-4210U processor and the only service manual on your notebook's support page shows Intel processors and motherboards, none for AMD.
