Hi:

 

The processor is an integral part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded separately.

 

The only way to upgrade the processor would be to replace the motherboard with one listed in chapter 3 of your notebook's service manual that may come with a better processor.

The costs attendant to doing such an upgrade would most likely exceed the cost of the notebook.

 

When it comes to buying notebooks nowadays no matter what company makes them, always be sure you will be satisfied with the existing CPU and GPU because they can't be upgraded.
