Package: Socket 988B rPGA
TPD: 35W

I was hoping to to upgrade a better CPU that is compatible with my motherboard

Given the fact that this is a laptop I would honestly not risk trying to upgrade the CPU in it and would leave it as it is. While you can actually change the CPU to any listed here - http://www.cpu-world.com/Sockets/Socket%20G2%20%28rPGA988B%29.html - (As I believe that Socket 988b rPGA aka Socket G2 is actually not soldered to the motherboard) you still have to take into account the extra power draw and extra heat emitted so the final decision is up to you. Have fun!

EDIT:
so i can actually change the CPU but if i change it with the same TPD well it not heat the laptop? and which CPU should i recommend getting and a better integrated graphics?
 


yeah you're right buying a new CPU wont change anything on the integrated graphics plus waste alot of money getting the New CPU.
i just want to make this laptop to run better on games but it only have an crappy integrated graphics.
i'm just going to start saving money to build my own PC

EDIT: if i change my CPU and getting a New CPU with Intel Graphics HD 3000 - 4000 something like that will that work on my PC?
