    Go to HP site support,, Then input model number ect,,download the maintence manual pdf, look at the section on CPUs and ram, it will list all that you can use and have HP part numbers associated with the cpus and ram ,that easy. The maintenance manual will also show you how to change out any part, step by step.

    and or check this link out: http://forum.notebookreview.com/hp-...4-hp-pavilion-maintenance-service-guides.html
    Its incomplete though.
