Welcome to our peer-to-peer HP Community Forum!
Your HP Notebook - 15-Ac647tu (V5C94PA) is likely fitted with system board p/n: 815249-601 "MOTHERBOARD UMA PenN3700 PRO", which is powered by a Pentium N3700 processor. The processor is part of the system board and cannot be upgraded with any other processor. The only way to upgrade to an Intel Core i3 or i5 processor, is to buy another system board -see pages 18 and 19 of the laptop manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04653884.pdf.
However, unless you can buy an upgraded system board for cheap and you have the skills/patience to swap your system board, I would advise against it. Meaning, perhaps the time has come to purchase a newer, higher performing laptop.
Hope this was helpful.
Kind Regards,
