the best for giving u boost is a athlon 750k which is a cpu not apu but is fm2 and is 100w and supported by ur mobo and the best thing is its only 79$ and u may have to perform a bios update

Since the Athlon 750k is not on HP's official supported APU (or CPU) list, it may not work with your PC. Yes, the Athlon 750k is socket FM2. Yes, it will physically fit in the motherboard's FM2 socket. But if that processor cannot be identified by the BIOS it will likely not even boot up or it will boot up, but since the BIOS may not be able to specifically identify the processor, it may only run at reduced speeds which more or less defeats the purpose of the upgrade.
You can attempt to install the Athlon 750k, but you run the risk of having to return the CPU if it does not work properly. That generally involves paying to ship it back to wherever you bought it and paying a 15% restocking fee.

check this comparison between the a10 and 750k
the athlon is much better structured than the a10 with advanced instructions and everything
and remember when athlon is o.ced to 4 ghz it beats a10 by a leap
u can get a 30$ hyper 212 evo

No it is not the chip 750k is much better structured tha the apus
It is better overclocker
And it has the same structure that a 8350 core has that is piledriver
It is a better overclocker
And when overclocked to 4.0 ghz it will leave behind the a10
Its just 80$ but performs much better
