Upgrade processor without changes to motherboard for Inspiron 5558

[Lynchoi]

Is it possibly to upgrade the I core 3 processor on a Inspiron 5558 to a I core 7?

No, it's unlikely you'd be able to complete such a task.

If it is your notebook http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/4/product-support/product/inspiron-15-5558-laptop/upgrade and the cpu upgrading is not for most of us, because the notebook came with the BGA type of CPUs, which is soldered on the motherboard. If you want to upgrade you have to buy the cpu/MB.
