Hi! As in the title i have a toshiba satellite l55t-a5186.

It has an Intel i5 CPU and Intem mobile 4400 graphics. I assume the GPU is integrated with the CPU both being intel and I was wondering if it would be possible for me to buy a new CPU with integrated GPU and install in in this laptop? and if so how much do you all think it would cost to do so? I already asked on the official toshiba support forums but I have not gotten a reply back.



Sorry for my bad Grammar, I was in a bit of a hurry when writing this

Laptops are almost always impossible to upgrade the CPU - it's often soldered directly to the motherboard.
Even if you can remove it (relatively) easily, an upgrade for a laptop is not as simple as dropping a better CPU in there.

If it's even possible to do, it'll cost a huge chunk of change, for minor (if any improvements). Chances are though, it's not possible.
