Hi I was wondering about a laptop I am thinking on getting it is the ASUS U46E-BAL6 I wanted to know if I could upgrade the processor from a Intel i7 2nd gen to a Intel i7 6th gen or a equivalent AMD processor I would rather have a AMD processor although I would rather have a AMD in the computer though

Chipset Type
Mobile Intel HM65 Express

Due to changes in electrical interface of Ivy Bridge chips, they could not be used in older motherboards, built on 6-series chipsets. You may be able to use another Sandy Bridge CPU.

If all you what to know is if you could upgrade the processor from a Intel i7 2nd gen to a Intel i7 6th gen or a equivalent AMD processor, the answer is NO.
