HELP... I want to upgrade my CPU but I don't know which one is compatible

I have a BTO W270EN and my CPU is a real bottleneck. My graphics card is ok (2GB) but my CPU can't run any game (2,40gHz).

So do any of you guys have a suggestion with which CPU I can replace my current CPU? It's an intel i3-2370M

Thanks

Hello, ClemDP:

Could you please confirm your computer model? I searched for the model you provided, but I could not find it, seems like you got the battery model instead of the computer model.

Regards,

Amy.

turn vsync off ,it caps your framerate.

Go into bios and load "optimized defaults", restart.

Go into the power options under the control pahttp://goo.gl/maoapk nel, choose "high performance."

Download afterburner, run a game, play a bit then quickly alt tab back into afterburner and take a picture.

Post that.

Download cinebench 11.5 run it, post a picture of the result.

I've had a loot over the web and theirs no real way of doing it, I overclock my desktop using the bios and the cpu multiplier, but laptops have locked down bios', you might be able to push it up a little with SetFSB but I doubt you would really see any difference
