Thank you for your quick response.
So according to this manual, the best compatible CPU is i7-2720QM.
Is there any reason I could not put in i7-2860QM? The only difference I can see are the clocks and cache size.

I am currently running on i7-2860QM which works flawlessly. Anyway I am thinking about upgrading to Ivy Bridge next year (i7-3840QM) but have no idea how it is going to work. I'd like to use its graphics HD 4000 which should be much better than the current discrete ATI HD 6470M but I haven't found any solution to disable the discrete graphics and use the integrated one yet 😞
