Welcome to our HP User Forum!
According to HP Desktop PCs - motherboard specifications, Moria3 | HP® Customer Support, your Omen 25L Desktop - GT12-0050 is fitted with a Moria3 (SSID: 87C3) motherboard.
The fastest processor listed for the Moria3 MOBO is an AMD Ryzen 9 3900, with a TDP of 65 watt:
Even though admittedly the Ryzen 7 3700x and a Ryzen 9 5650x share the same AM4 socket, the Ryzen 9 5640x has a 105 watt TDP.
That may be the reason why I was unable to find any Omen 25L Desktop - GT12-0050 desktops fitted with the Ryzen 9 5640x processor online, as HP can be very picky when it comes to allowing high TDP processors: "TDP up to 65 w"...
Hope this was helpful.
Kind Regards,
