Product: HP Slimline Desktop P270-033w
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hi I'm looking to uprade my processor to a faster one so I can encode my videos quicker and have a faster system.
I have this mother board 82F2 (U3E1) motherboard
It doesn't say if I can use any other Core I5-8400 series chips.
Does anyone know if I could use this?
Thanks,
Thien

Hi:
Below is the link to the product specs page for your PC.
The supported processors are listed on this page under Processor Upgrade Information.
https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05591677
No 8th gen Intel core processors are supported. 7th generation only.
