Lenovo 0578-F7U CPU replacement?

[SortedSand]

I would like to know what CPUs are compatible with this socket and chip-set so I can upgrade to a better cpu.

Socket: PGA-989r

https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_G1 CPU list is on the right. Main thing is you need to check if the CPU will work with the computer not just fit in the socket. Even if technically a CPU can work with a certain chipset, does not mean that a system with that chipset can run all the CPUs. You'd have to look at your computer and see what CPUs it can come with, and maybe read the BIOS revision notes to check for CPU compatibility mentions.
