According to the Maintenance & Service guide for your notebook model series, the following processor is the best you can install.

 

Intel Core i7 2620M, 2.7-GHz (turbo up to 3.4-GHz) processor, 4-MB L3 cache      HP part number 631252-001

 

Here is the hyperlink to the pdf file of the manual. See Ch 3, pages 26-27, it. 13

The downside of AI is that it can give you convincing, but bogus answers.

 

The processors you can install are Legacy Intel Core processors known as Sandy Bridge.

 

Sandy Bridge is Intel Core second generation.

 

Upgrading to a newer generation is not possible.

 

Each processor generation has its own socket format.

 

Only a specific generation processor will physically fit into the socket as the number of pins and sometimes physical size is generation specific.
