upgrading my laptop's APU/CPU. HELP!

[ryjanpugz]

Hello guys!

 

I have an older laptop that I was thinking of upgrading the parts on so that I can play League of Legends and CS GO at a decent frame rate (low to medium).I was wondering if anyone that has upgraded their laptop's APU/CPU could give me some advice. I don't really use it anymore since I have a gaming desktop but it would be nice to have a laptop that can run league at 60fps (or close, at lowest settings even) for when I go to a friend's place or to a impromptu LoL LAN party.

 

Now before anyone start's calling me a 'noob' or an 'idiot', I honestly don't expect any upgrades (if possible) to make my little laptop into a super gaming rig lol. Again, I just want something that can hopefully run League of Legends at 60fps(or close) even on lowest settings. Right now, my laptop can't even do that. ( I often get drops as low as 4 fps at lowest settings) 

 

Also, a little experimenting can be a fun and good learning experience. 

 

 

 

The laptop's (HP Envy 6-1040ca) specs are:

 

• AMD A6-4455m 2.1Ghz (up to 2.6Ghz with Turbo Core)
• 8GB of RAM
• 240GB SSD (replaced the laptop's original mechanical drive)

 

 

I figured that aside from the APU, the laptop's specs seem pretty decent so I focused on looking for a replacement for the APU. I'm thinking of replacing the A6-4455M with the A10-4600M or A10-5750M because these are the best chips in that APU lineup.

 

 

Some of my questions are:

 

1. Is this possible?
2. Will the A10-4600M or A10-5750M be compatible with my motherboard?

 

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Take apart the laptop and see if the APU is soldered into the motherboard......if it is then you can't upgrade the APU.
