Precision 7710 Processor Upgrade

Hello, can you upgrade the Precision 7710 Mobile Workstation processor to the Core i7-7820HQ processor? If so, what is the Dell part number for the Core i7-7820HQ processor?  
is there anything else that need to be done to make the processor work? Does Dell do this service?

To upgrade processor, you must replace the motherboard as they are soldered together.

For i7-7820HQ, you must upgrade your system to 7720.

Hello,

do you know if the 7720 board fits into the 7710 case?

Do not know for certain but very unlikely be a straight forward drop-in.  

Not be be taken as negative, but if you did not know much about the physical builds of these systems, there is not much of a successful rate for transplant. 

If your 7710 can no longer serve your needs, upgrading to a newer system would be a better choice than updating the old system.
