Hi:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

 

c03094322.pdf (hp.com)

 

Chapter 1 has the list of supported processors and memory upgrade info.

 

If your notebook currently has an Intel 2nd generation core processor, the best one you can upgrade to would be the Intel® Core™ i7-2640M.

 

If your notebook has an Intel 1st generation core processor, the best one you can upgrade to would be the Intel Core i5-480M processor.

 

Your notebook supports up to 2 x 4 GB of DDR3-1333 MHz memory.

 

Notebooks with the 1st generation core processors would run the 1333 MHz memory at 1066 MHz.

 

If you haven't done so already, you can replace the 2.5" mechanical hard drive with a 2.5" SATA solid state drive (SSD).
