Hey Guys,

I hope all of you are doing well. I came here lookin if there is any possibilities you guys had heard of HP Original motherboard update? I've been searching here and there for any newest Munich K motherboard that would support newer CPU but unfortunately i couldnt find any... I would really appreciate it if you could send a link...

Thanks

Hi,

It is generally not possible, although some exceptions exist on older Intel MBs, to install newer Intel processors in older Intel MBs. Intel was using a LGA 1151 socket pin count for a couple of years but newer processors require a LGA 1200 CPU socket or a LGA 1700 socket pin count.

The chipset on newer MBs is different and the CPU socket pin count is different.

You would have to physically upgrade the MB to install a newer Intel CPU. HP does not manufacture newer MBs for Legacy PCs.

are you referring to this type of computer?
There are actually two models here

•  motherboard specifications, Munich-K

• TDP: Up to 91 W
• Socket type: LGA 1151
• Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:

  Processor	TDP	Integrated Graphics
  Intel Core i7-7700K (Kabylake) 4.2 GHz Quad Core	91 W	Intel HD Graphics 630
  Intel Core i7-7700 (Kabylake) 3.6 GHz Quad Core	65 W	Intel HD Graphics 630
  Intel Core i5-7600K (Kabylake) 3.8 GHz Quad Core	91 W	Intel HD Graphics 630
  Intel Core i5-7400 (Kabylake) 3.0 GHz Quad Core	65 W	Intel HD Graphics 630

•  motherboard specifications, Munich-S

• TDP: Up to 91 W
• Socket type: LGA 1151
• Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:

  Processor	TDP	Integrated Graphics
  Intel Core i7-6700K (Skylake) 4.0 GHz Quad Core	91 W	Intel HD Graphics (GT2)
  Intel Core i7-6700 (Skylake) 3.4 GHz Quad Core	65 W	Intel HD Graphics (GT2)

  Intel Core i5-6400 (Skylake) 2.7 GHz Quad Core	65 W	Intel HD Graphics 530

At the time of writing, I have not yet looked to see if it can be found, but it will be necessary to check if you can make the exchange without problem.

I see, unfortunately it seems like the only option i have is to change the whole MB... btw, do you have any  idea which is the best mobo that would fit in a case like this one? https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/omen-x-by-hp-desktop-pc-900-000i/12079701/product-info

Thanks for your response, and yes that is my current desktop... unfortunately i have the one with i7 6700K, however, im planning on upgrading to a newer CPU which has at least 8 cores/ 16 threads.. upgrading with i7 7700K doesnt seem like a big upgrade for me...

Which do you think is the best MOBO for that kind of case? im pretty sure it'll be the mini/micro ATX, but was wonderin if there's any MOBO that has the same layout of I/O ports with the Munich....

Thanks

Sorry, I may not have understood your request correctly
As mentioned, you cannot replace the processor with this original motherboard.
I understand that you are looking for the second version
I've been searching here and there for any newest Munich K motherboard
Now if you want to install other motherboard than HP, it might not be possible
possibly, you would have to find what is in place, in this same type of box ??
