Quick question, do you know if the CPU is hard-wired to the mobo or I can swap it. I have the i5 variant with 32 gigs of ram and an SSD, having the i7 would help.
it's soldered to the mobo. HQ,HK,U variants of intel laptop processor are soldered to the mobo, so you can't swap it. swapable mobile CPU are the one with socketed variants is the old ones with M derivations (MQ,M). However there are also some laptops with PC desktop chips like 7700K that is swapable as long as the socket is the same variant. These laptops are commonly found on clevo barebones.
