Upgrade a HP notebook processor and Ram

[Akin_m]

I a hp notebook with an ADM E2-9000e RADEON R2 processor and 4GB RAM,  I want to know if its possible to upgrade it to an Intel core i5 or AMD ryzen 5 with an 8GB RAM?

Memory you can upgrade to 8gb. There is one memory slot and you can install up to a single 8 gb DDR4-2400 SO-DIMM which will bridge or downclock to -1866 speed. The processor is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be changed in any way. 

Post back if you want specific instructions.

Thank you, your response was really helpful.

Want can be done it to make handle the computational power needed for data analytic tasks and Machine learning?? 

[Huffer]

Not really anything. It is a very low end computer.

Thank you, which HP product that isn't too expensive would you recommend for these tasks?

[Huffer]

That's the problem. Computing power costs money unfortunately. I would need to know more about what you are doing but a good rule of thumb and advice I give out is get an Intel Core processor (at least an i3) get at least 16 gb of memory and get at least a 1920 x 1080 screen. Also get a solid state drive. 

This one is not very expensive and has all of the above except 8 gb memory

Alright, thank you for your response!

I am studying data Analytics, so I will need to do things like database management, Machine learning,  data processing  e.t.c. 

Would AMD Ryzen 5 4500U and 8GB be sufficient?

I am not a huge fan of AMD laptops. However. my latest laptop HP sent me for being an Expert is AMD Ryzen and works pretty well. The Ryzen 5 is equal to an Intel i3 but if I had the Ryzen, I would get 16 gb of memory for technical reasons. Also don't forget the 1920 x 1080 screen and SSD. Absolutely needed for a working laptop you will be on for several hours a day. Much more pleasant to use.
