Product: HP Pavilion g6-1189sa Notebook PC

I have a HP Pavilion g6-1189sa Notebook PC, I want to upgrade the motherboard. What is the best motherboard I can upgrade to? Can I put a g7 motherboard in my laptop? I am running windows 7 just now but I am about to upgrade to windows 10 and want to upgrade my motherboard and cpu at the same time

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

HP does not recommend upgrading or downgrading hardware parts or software that is bundled with the product as It may affect the system performance, however, you could change the configuration at your own discretion.

 

I would recommend you can purchase a new computer with the latest hardware bundled with windows 10 operating system instead of spending cash on new motherboard on a windows 7 OS. 

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
