Hi,

I do not really understand the question. Do you mean if you can replace the Processor (CPU i3 5020) with a different CPU?

It is not possible as the CPU is integrated on the motherboard (soldered)

Do you mean you want to add extra RAM to the PC?

The notebook supports max 16GB of DDR3L 1600MHz RAM (2x8GB)

 

An upgrade you should perform on the notebook, is to replace the 2,5" HDD with a 2.5" SATA3 SSD such as the Crucial MX500 which would give a great boost in everyday performance.

 

Hope it helps,

David
