Can I change my laptop CPU?

- in Asus

I have a laptop with the gtx 1070 and an i7 7700HQ. I would like to replace it with an i7 10510U. Is that possible? (Laptop is an Asus Strick GL502VS, but already improved by Saturn)

No, you can use fine soldering with the right temperature, not too long proper solder and as soon as you make a mistake it is that. Besides that there are socketed CPUs. Rarely, however, with laptops.

Doesn't work and is not worth it.

That is an increase in performance of 6%.

Is not possible, different chipset, different socket and I think they are soldered there today.

Is

Practically impossible. Because in laptops, the CPU chips are firmly soldered into the motherboard.

Is

No, it doesn't work even there, because the soldering points are not next to the ICs (pins), but as PGA (pin grid array) under the chip. Even people with good soldering skills don't get there.

No, in this laptop the CPU is soldered and can't be changed, as with almost all laptops. Saturn certainly didn't change it, but simply gave you another model with a different processor.

But the other model number is on the bottom and in the system

And what should that tell me now? Of course there's a different CPU model number if they gave you a laptop with a different CPU.

I mean another laptop model number

So it's a different laptop model with a different processor.
