Hi,


Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04653884

CPU & GPU: page 19, 20
Processor is integrated and unique to motherboard. You cannot upgrade it. Likewise dedicated graphic chip is soldered on to board. No upgrade possible. This is the scenario in majority of consumer laptops.

HDD:
Upgrade to 2.5 inch 7mm thick SATA SSD. Samsung Evo is good one. Create recovery USB before upgrade. Use it to factory reset to SSD after upgrade.

RAM:
Two non-customer-accessible/upgradable memory module slots (Intel Core processors)

DDR3L-1600 dual channel support

Supports up to 8 GB of system RAM in the following conƭgurations:
8192-MB total system memory (8192×1) or (4096×2)�


Regards

Visruth
