Which processor will work as a replacement for the Intel(R) Celeron(R) N4000 CPU @ 1.10GHz 1.10 GHz in my Lenovo ideapad 330 laptop?

None. Your processor is soldered onto the motherboard and cannot be changed.

Just take the specs of your computer to wherever you buy your parts from. They will be able to advise on how high to go on your processor.

You, need a lesson on motherboards. If you heat up some flux and tap it to the solder or just carefully heat the existing solder, you can use an extraction device (orange stick, screwdriver, etc) to remove the liquefied solder. The processor can then be removed and replaced with no permanent damage to the motherboard.
How do you think we upgrade computers????

Good luck with that procedure. And, you did check with lenovo first to see what processors are supported by their bios, right?

No lesson needed. I have52 years in this field. You need more experience. And, you are responding to a 16 month old thread.
