AMD Athlon II P-340 Upgrade

[mikeymenez]

I have a Lenovo G465 Laptop.
I want to upgrade it's motherboard and processor.
Specs:
Processor: AMD K10 (Athlon II P-340 Dual-core Processor)
I want to upgrade my processor to Phenom II X940. Is it possible?
Motherboard: Chipset = AMD 785GX, Southbridge = AMD SB800. Base board Version (Guam)
Motherboard version: 36N19WW(V2.05)
I also want to upgrade my motherboard for me to install Phenom II X940. Any mobo suggestions?

Thank you!

If you change the motherboard you'll also have to buy a fresh copy of Windows as the pre-installed OEM version is permanently tied to the existing motherboard. I don't think such a hardware upgrade is even possible anyway on a laptop - - at least not on a Lenovo.

It took you 5 months to come to a decision about my post being the best answer, which is daft anyway since nobody else has answered -- LOL :lol:
