You'd have to ship this into our config center to do this. Cannot be done aftermarket.
Can I please get the FULL model number of this unit? I will send an email to my POC's at Panasonic to see if they still have the parts to get this done.
Thanks,
ROB

Thanks ROB,

Where is your config center located at ?
The processor of this unit is Intel i7 4600U,
Can it be upgraded with the i7 7600U ?
Regards
Kam

CPU is a 3540M, not a 4600u. See below for factory desc:
Win7 (Win8.1 Pro COA) Intel Core i7-3540M 2.00GHz vPro 14.0" HD 500GB(7200rpm) 4GB Intel WiFi a/b/g/n/ac TPM Bluetooth Insertable Smartcard Emissive Backlit Keyboard No Absolute BIOS Multi-drive Toughbook Preferred
No, CPU is *NOT* upgradable, like 99.999% of the other laptops in this world, it's soldered on.
Our HQ facility is in Magnolia, TX - Rugged Depot. Let me email my rep to see if we can still do this. I'll know more by Monday as it's already 5:02PM on a Friday.
Thanks,
ROB

Does the model number on the sticker match the model number in the bios?

Okay,
They CANNOT do this I'm told. They don't have the parts any more
Sorry, I tried!!! I've sent a follow up email asking them if we can find the parts and send with it if they can do it. Will advise when they reply.
Thanks!
