HP Omen Obelisk Desktop 875-0xxx

[ironmonkx]

Hello I currently have the HP Omen Obelisk 875-0xxx. It has the stock motherboard "Edoras Motherboard". I'm looking to upgrade my current cpu "i5-9400F" to a new i7-11700K. My question was if my current motherboard would be compatible with the i7-11700K. I'm also wanting to upgrade to a 3060.

here is my current motherboard: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06124984

Please let me know if it would work or if I need to upgrade other parts of my HP Omen Obelisk.

hi

as you can see the maximum indicated by hp will be the i9...
TDP: up to 65W

the one you mentioned, although it might work is with a tdp of 125w

you might burn out the motherboard
and you have the H370 chipset

Find Compatible Desktop Boards

Find boards compatible with the Intel® Core™ i7-11700K Processor in the Intel Desktop Compatibility Tool
Intel® 500
Intel® 400
therefore not compatible

for the graphics card, I often recommend the Asus site with filter options

 500w

or msi

See if others offer it, price/performance may vary...

sometimes no choice, you will have to change the power supply as well)
