Is an upgrade to Intel Core 13 processor available?

Sorry no you would have to find a model with that upgrade or you may contact dell for a custom build pc

No you can not (at least not officially). There are work-arounds you can do and some bios updates that you can apply but intel claims that it's an exploit and plans to patch it sometime. You need a Z87 for overclocking along with a "K" model intel processor.

No the CPU and GPU are already built into the motherboard and cannot be replaced, all it needs is ram memory and a hard drive, as far as I remember you can't upgrade the processor

Yes- we recommend we upgrade the card for you. We could add a 3.2 Ghz CPU, and the ATI Radeon 5870 for a combined charge of $200.00. Let us know if interested. Otherwise, these are very easily upgradeable. Thanks!

I do not believe the RAM can be upgraded. Not sure about any other hardware.

Hi for our unit, we have upgraded this unit to a Intel core 2 duo processor which is better then Intel pentium. Please read our details to see the rest of the specs. Any questions please contact us at 844-889-1070. Re-Circuit

The Asus support site for this board will have a list of compatible processors. You'll need to add a video card if you pick a CPU without on-board graphics.

You will need to update the bios; worse yet, you need a compatible CPU on board to do the update ( like the Trinity CPU family ).

I think it could b upgraded, but you may have to purchase said upgrade from gateway/Asus???

No. This is a desktop spec CPU. You can't upgrade a laptop CPU. All you can do is upgrade RAM and Harddrive.

Yes...the processor info can be found here: http://ark.intel.com/m/products/75117/Intel-Core-i7-4700MQ-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_40-GHz#@product .

Yes, you can. But i recommend that try with a FX 6300 processor. is in this moment at same price.

Are you referring to the CPU by any chance? To be honest I'm not entirely sure. But I believe you could probably find another processor to replace the one that comes with it, since you can get access to most parts by taking the bottom off of the computer. But I just replaced the RAM to upgrade from 1 to 2 gb. I am by no means a computer expert, I just know my way around the internet. :)

The answer is yes, check Intel's site for all the data you need.http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/core/core-i7-processor.html

I would suggest checking the product website, they have listed the compatible chipsets and processors

The i7-950 is not on the list of supported processors. The socket is the same but I wouldn't chance it. This board is tricky enough even with supported hardware.
