Hello everyone
I have a laptop "HP Pavilion 11 x360". But I am not excited in the speed and graphic. Now, I really want to upgrade CPU from Intel Bay Trail-M to intel core i5 and graphic from Intel HD Graphics
to another graphic.
Can I upgrade them??? Is my laptop working well after that?? Do you have any recommendation for me???
And Below is about my laptop's details:
+CPU Type: QuadCore Intel Pentium N3520, 2417 MHz (29 x 83)
+Motherboard Chipset: Intel Bay Trail-M
+Graphic: Intel HD Graphics
 
@celtic_warrior99, My RAM is DDR3 8GB. Its working so well. But I want to replace CPU and Graphic in order to install Mac OS on my laptop. I asked soneone else on insanlymac forum, and he said me CPU Pentium in my laptop currently doesnot support by Apple. I am so bored about my laptop. Do you have any ideas in order to replace another mainboard on my laptop???
 
There's no standard mainboard format for laptops. You would have to get a motherboard from a higher-spec 11 x360, but the best Intel there is an i3 and even then it's questionable as to whether it's possible to replace such a core component within a laptop, especially if you're not entirely sure what you're doing.

Realistically, the only things that can ever be upgraded on laptops are the memory and the disk drive. If you don't like your laptop and/or it won't do what you want, all you can do is sell it and buy a different one. If you want something that you can upgrade, get a decent desktop.
