Do what ever you like! If you break and damage your motherboard its your own fault!
Acer is also safe as stupid as you describe them here. They develop two different motherboard with different socket, because you kurofune knows everthing better!
Of course you can change your CPU
but the chances to destroy your socket are 70%!
Acer did not let produce good and hig tec motherboards! its written MADE in CHINA

you see the difference? the socket is white, not like mine black! Nokotion did produce those motherboards. Not how you write in your Blog compal!
WtF? mhhhhh? I know evertyhing better? hhhhmmmm?
Acer gives Compal order
Compal gives Nokotion Order
Nokotion did produce them!
So think about how much Budget they had for producing them, even when Acer did place pictures of their better motherboard in their own manual?
