My current laptop has -
5th Gen i5 5200U
GT 940M (2GB)
8 GB RAM

But according to the service manual, I can change the CPU to 6th gen i7, but I'm not sure about the GPU (It says that 2GB/4GB can be installed).

Even if I can't install a new GPU, can I atleast upgrade to 4GB memory? With overclocking, this laptop is quite good in running games, and the limiting factor seems to be the 2 GB video RAM.

PS: Is there any way I can use the normal 8 GB RAM with my GPU?

Thanks
 
You read it wrong, you can't just change the cpu, you need to replace the system board, xxxxu are solder to the system board. read page 25 and on
 


If I change the board is it possible?
