Hi,

The series supports the following processors

• Intel Quad Core i7-4900MQ 2.80-GHz processor (SC turbo up to 3.80-GHz; 1600-MHz FSB, 8.0-MB L3 cache, 47 W) part # 723523-001
• Intel Quad Core i7-4800MQ 2.70-GHz processor (SC turbo up to 3.70-GHz; 1600-MHz FSB, 6.0-MB L3 cache, 47 W) part # 723524-001
• Intel Quad Core i7-4702MQ 2.20-GHz processor (SC turbo up to 3.20-GHz; 1600-MHz FSB, 6.0-MB L3 cache, 37 W) part # 723521-001
• Intel Dual Core i5-3380M 2.90-GHz processor (SC turbo up to 3.60-GHz; 1600-MHz FSB; 3.0-MB L3 cache, 35 W) part # 708762-001
• Intel Dual Core i5-3230M 2.60-GHz processor (SC turbo up to 3.20-GHz; 1600-MHz FSB, 3.0-MB L3 cache, 35 W) part # 711903-001
• Intel Dual Core i3-3130M 2.60-GHz processor (1600-MHz FSB, 3.0-MB L3 cache, 35 W) part # 713163-001
• Intel Dual Core i5-3120M 2.40-GHz processor (1600-MHz FSB, 3.0-MB L3 cache, 35 W) part # 700627-001

Please buy the right part and the following manual shows you (page 78) how to replace CPU.

How about the core i7 4940mx??

[ERWIN90]

I7 4940mx is the most powerful processor that could support this type of Socket G3 the problem is that you will have temperature problems and I think it could affect the voltage because for example the alienware 18 has that processor and brings two three coolers 2 for the processor and one For the video to decide all the heat and a charger of 330w 16.9A ~ 19.5V, compared to envy that brings a cooler and a charger of 120w.
I also have this problem and investigate to update my processor I have the envy 15 106la my processor is the i5 4200 I think the best option we have is the i7-4700MQ, i7-4702MQ, i7-4800MQ, i7-4810WQ, i7-4900MQ  per temperature topic and I think that you will also have to buy a thermal paste Premium and remove the hard drive and replace it with a ssd so that it does not contribute with the heat that generates a hdd you will have to take the msata that you have the same since that is cache for the hdd and if you put a ssd will be there to spare.
I extended too much but you will understand the reason of everything that I said good luck friend. Bye

hi,

be carefull it's a trap. (i don't understand why hp is doing it) but that pdf has 2 completely diferent sets of motherboards and processors . 

--set A) the motherboards with hm77 chipset and the cpus from 3rd generation: i3-3...something or i5-3..something with phisical "socket G2" , can be upgraded to i7-3...something 

--set B) the mobo with hm87 chipset and i7-4...somethinng, with phisical "socket G3". the "worst" cpu here, i7-4702mq, is quite powerfull and an upgrade to i7-4900mq will bring a 20%+ and to i7-4940mx (not in the list) a 40%+..

those 2 sets can't be mixed !!!!

also be carefull with the number of W (tdp) for both sets.
