Computer upgrade possible?

I own a Lenovo H505s, which has a slow as hell 1.65ghz E-450 apu with 6320 radeon graphics. Apparently the processor is really weirdly soldered to the motherboard, Jesus knows why. But that means I have to replace the motherboard to replace the processor.
It is a MiniATX computer as far as I'm concerned, so that means I need to get a miniatx PSU, as the power goes directly to the motherboard.
I have not found one motherboard which follows the pattern of the Lenovo motherboard which has a FM2 socket, so if anyone has a motherboard that follows the same pattern as the case help is appreciated.
Or should I just get a whole new computer altogether?

Many thanks.
