Upgrading CPUs on laptops normally isn't an option. For a laptop running that CPU, it's almost certainly not an option.

Upgrading parts in laptops is extremely difficult, especially a cpu that is probably soldered to the board. It probably won't be possible.

Definitly no. I have never seen a laptop where you can upgrade the CPU.

You cannot upgrade the CPU if it is soldered into the motherboard. 

 

You may as well start saving for a better laptop, or better yet, a decent desktop.

Some older laptops you could change the CPU, and laptops that run desktop-grade CPUs you can upgrade.

Chances are, the CPU is soldered down. You're probably better off getting a new laptop.
