you probably wont be able to change the processor in your laptop, most of them they are soldered in.

Or are you considering getting a different laptop with that CPU in it?

It's removable cpu, I was disassembled it.

Here is a comparison of the two - http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i7-2670QM-vs-Intel-Core-i5-2430M

not a lot in the single core performance but the extra 2 cores will help with multi tasking

MANY of the laptops out there DO NOT HAVE THE CPU SOLDERED IN!
Unless it's one of those really thin or cheap small laptops, I have found that many of them have a removable CPU!
Easy way to know is YouTube your laptop make and model. Somebody has likely taken it apart and shown you what it looks like in the inside!
