These are all the processors compatible with the M sockethttp://www.cpu-world.com/Sockets/Socket%20M%20(mPGA478MT).html. If you want the be 100% sure that the upgrade is possible call the manufacturer and double check. A lot a of people say you can go and get better processors than what they recommend, and a lot of the time you can. Just make sure if you buy one new or used it has a return policy. Something like 14 or 30 day money back.

The processor you have is eight years old and is built for a laptop, so the only place you're likely to even stand a chance of finding one is eBay.

Your motherboard supports the PGA479 socket, so you need to find a processor that's compatible with that and is built specifically for a laptop. Laptop and desktop processors are not interchangable, so you need to make sure you pick the right one.

Realistically though, don't expect much of a performance boost. Processors from that era aren't anywhere close to those from even five years ago.
