Dell 1749 CPU Change

Hello, I have a Dell 1749 laptop with an Intel i5 CPU 2.40 Ghz M 520. My computer is also equipped with a Samsung SSD 840 Evo and 4GB Ram. For various reasons (delays in the use of music editing software among others), I think about change the CPU and install a more powerful one. I wonder if this is possible, and if so, what processor I would have to install. Thank you in advance for your answers, Mathias.

    You're limited to the first-generation i5 CPU -- if you really need a faster CPU, look for a new notebook.  The upgradeability of this one is very limited.

    OK !

    Thanks for your answer......!

    Do you think adding 4gb RAM could be a good thing ?

    It may be slightly helpful but since you've already an SSD, it won't make as much impact as you'd think.
