    I got a laptop and the model no. is LENOVO 3000 Y500 77613BQ.
    The question is can I exchange the motherboard which have the graphics memory slots and proccessor with 2.4 GHz in my laptop? If so could you pliz tell me the details about this and prices also?
    Thank You!!

    It can be possible. BUT, you have to disassemble all the laptop. This requires some hardware knowledge. It will void the warranty. The mainbord cost from 1/3 to 1/2 of the laptop price. So, it can be better to sold the unit and buy an other one. CPU is easy to exchange but it also costs a lot.
