The processor is soldered onto the motherboard, so the only way to upgrade is to completely replace the motherboard with one containing a better processor.

Since this is a new system, also note that even if you replace the mainboard -- which is very likely to cost well over half what the system did initially -- it will also void the warranty, so you'll end up with an unsupported, no-warranty system.
