Unfortunately No. That CPU is soldered to the motherboard. You would have to replace the entire motherboard with another CPU on it.

Hi ram_man,
Thanks for posting and for sending your service tag information.
Apologies that your system is not performing as expected.
Unfortunately, based on the service tag number, the warranty has expired. You can await a reply from other community members or contact the Dell Out of Warranty Support Team.

You can't. You're limited to the CPUs and GPUs that shipped with this model of system.
If you need a CPU and GPU of that level capability, you'll need a new system - minimum would be an XPS or G-series; better, Alienware. Your current system is a dead end for what you want to do with it.
