Hello guys,

I'm new at this so sorry for my english or if i posted in the wrong place.

I have a Acer Aspire E1-531 and i want to know if i can change the processor for one more powerfull like intel i7 (i think its the better to play games). Because this laptop have a lots of space but i think with a good processor i could run battlefield 3 and others.

If someone can help i would be very thankfull.

Thank you to everyone

Probably not... need to contact Acer with your model number, but looks like this is a Celeron or Pentium based laptop and digging a little deeper that's all the chipset supports.
