@Awais-Khan81,

Welcome to our HP community forum!

Your OMEN 25L GT12-0045na Desktop PC (9YT63EA) as fitted with a Dorado motherboard (SSID: 8704) -please verify, can be upgraded to an i9-10900 or an i9-10900F (requires a graphics card).

If your OMEN 25L desktop is fitted with a DoradoOC-AMP motherboard (SSID: 8703), you can upgrade to the aforementioned Intel i9 processors and the i9-10900K/i9-10900KF.

@Awais-Khan81,

You can easily verify what motherboard you have: type in System Information in your Windows search bar, click on the System Information App, and look to the right of "BaseBoard Product": it will show you what SSID you got.

Hello good Afternoon,

I can verify My HP Desktop has Dorado motherboard SSID: 8704 Should I upgrade to i9-10900 or an i9-10900F And is it possible I can upgrade to 11th generation i9-10900 or an i9-10900F as it has same Socket type: LGA 1200 and TDP: up to 65 W  https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06610493

Please if you can let me know which graphics card, I am able to upgrade to What are my options NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Series 3060 or 40 Series 4070 Ti Or any other graphics card.

at the moment I have NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB graphics card Will I be able to upgrade up to 12G graphics card?

I have already started to upgrade the memory RAM.

Thank you

kind regards

@Awais-Khan81,

Yes, you can upgrade your PC to an i9-10900 or i9-10900F, but these processors are more expensive than an i7-10700/i7-10700F.  No, your PC/motherboard is not compatible with 11th gen intel processors.

Any of the graphics cards you mentioned would be compatible with your PC, but it depends on your power supply.  Please verify what power supply you got.

@Awais-Khan81,

Outstanding: with a 500-watt power supply you can comfortably power an RTX 4060 or an RTX 4060 Ti, such as these smaller-sized (two fan) models, powered by a single 8-pin PCIe power cable: ASUS DUAL RTX 4060 OC Specs | TechPowerUp GPU Database and: ASUS DUAL RTX 4060 Ti OC Specs | TechPowerUp GPU Database.

With your quality 500-watt power supply, you may very well also consider a smaller-sized (two fan) RTX 4070, powered by a single 8-pin PCIe power cable, such as this model: ASUS DUAL RTX 4070 Specs | TechPowerUp GPU Database, although a 200-watt TDP graphics card would be the absolute max you should contemplate installing in your PC.
