HP Pavilion x360 - 13-u131tu
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am currently using HP Pavilion x360 - 13-u131tu (Product Code: Z4Q49PA#ACJ).

Its Intel i3, 2.4 Ghz and 4 GB RAM and running on WIndows 10 Home edition (64 Bit).

Laptop is slow becausue of i3 and takes lot of time to load an application.

Can I upgrade its CPU or increase internal RAM?

Its specs

 

             https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c05313919

 

1. CPU: No, you have to buy the whole new System board which has

    (a) Motherboard,

    (b) New CPU / Processor and Integrated video (if available)

    (c) New Windows license (you can't reuse old license)

    Because all above 3 components are on one piece of hardware called system board.

 

2. RAM: Yes, it has  4 GB DDR4-2133 SDRAM (1 x 4 GB) now, you can upgrade to

    (a)  8GB: add 4GB more to slot 2 using same existing RAM or compatible RAM

                     https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct4g4sfs824a/ct11976264   (Ram will run at 2133MHz)

    (b) 12GB: add 8GB more to slot 2 using compatible RAM

                    https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct8g4sfs824a/ct11976271   (Ram will run at 2133MHz)

    (c) 16GB (max): install 8GB each to both slots using

                   https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct2k8g4sfs824a/ct11976251

If I increase RAM from 4GB to 16 GB;

will it improve performance of HP Pavilion?
