Upgrade HP Pavilion x360-11m-ad013dx

[jellis50]

I just bought an HP Pavilion x360 - 11m-ad013dx, 

(Product No. 1KT77UA)

which has the Intel Pentium N4200 CPU. I'm trying to find a motherboard that has at least an i3 I can upgrade too. 

From what i've read the N4200 is almost 80% of the i3 in speed so I'm thinking if I could find a motherboard with this processor I will swap it out. 

Not sure if they even had the i3 in this model. Could use some help with this.

Thanks

11m-ad008tu model from the same series has an i3 processor but HP is out of stock:

923810-001   Part is not orderable in the HP Parts Store. 
MOTHERBOARD UMA i3-7100U   
RoHS: COMPLY_2.06 

Also could not find it on eBay or amazon.com or a couple of the usual suspects parts house sites like Impact Computers. 

The cost of the board is going to be a very high pecent of the value of the laptop if and when you can find it.

No, no i3 option for the series and not much information about the series

Looks like only one machine on this class

The very similar for this series also does not have i3 option as shown on page 45 of the following manual.

I'm confused by your response.   Does this particular model have a motherboard that has the i3 or not?  The poster before you said it did.

Thanks

There was at least one model in that model series with an i3 processor. I think I checked it a slightly different way. Largely a moot point however as the motherboard does not appear to be available out there to purchase. If you could, the one I linked would fit and and work in your chassis but I also pointed out it would likely be economically unjustified to do the upgrade.
