[globalvideoedit]

Hi I am using a Dell inspiration Laptop. I am using it for video editing purpose. I use Adobe Premiere in it for video editing tasks. I am planning to upgrade my system's Processor. Can you please suggest me which process will be best for my current laptop.

Thanks in advance!@

Laptops (like your Dell) usually do not have the option of changing the CPU.

This CPU is soldered in and can not be upgraded.

I use Adobe Premiere

My condolence.

Usually you can't upgrade a CPU of a Laptop.

You might be able to succeed in replacing the whole motherboard with another motherboard with a stronger CPU, but only if it fits the chassis of your Dell. Good luck finding the right one.

But I have purchased a core i 7 processor for my laptop. Should I replace it?

Some older laptop models can be upgraded but your model cannot. The CPU is soldered to the board.
Generally you can assume that any laptop newer than 2013 cannot be upgraded when it comes to the CPU and GPU.

That's (likely) a desktop CPU -> that goes in a socket.

There are very few laptops that have socketed CPUs, and your Dell isn't one of them.

If you are able to do this, feel free to change your Nickname to "Houdini"
Send back the processor you ordered.

While true, there were Schenker laptops that had AM4 sockets in them, just some years ago.

Also there's frame.work, where you can replace the motherboard easily and thus upgrade the CPU.

But yeah, most laptops have soldered CPUs.
