Question Way to find compatible CPUs for Dell 8885V board?

[Brandinooooo]

I have a Dell e6410 with upgraded RAM but now it needs a CPU that can keep up. It has an i5-540m but it's horrible. The motherboard is Dell 8885V.

What it says is compatible:
Core i7-640m
Core i7-620m

Are there newer versions of those two or better ones that would be compatible with the board?

Really great thread on exactly the same upgrade in the same laptop:

Laptop CPU Upgrade. Possible?

Hey guys, I have a Dell Latitude E6410 and I am looking to upgrade the processor in it. Is there any way to do this? Even if I need to buy a new MOBO just to get an i7, I'll be fine with that. It's just the 2.4ghz i5 isn't cuttin' it anymore
