Hey guys, I have a HP Pavilion 208TX 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

Where are you? I guess it's not the USA because it would be cheaper to buy a new laptop than to upgrade CPU and motherboard.

Laptops have a very tight power and thermal envelope. Replacing the CPU with something more powerful will create issues.
