Hi,
I have a question about an old HP Pavilion P6-2010es laptop with a i3-2400 processor.
I would like to upgrade the processor in it. I have a i5-3470 to do it.

Can someone tell me if it is compatible and can I do it?, before opening it I would like to be sure that it will work later.

Thank you very much in advance.
Sincerely,

An i5-3470 would not be supported.
