HP Support Community, Hello!
I have HP Pavilion Desktop PC 590-P0025ur without CPU now. This PC uses links motherboard Links MB on Intel H370 . Processor upgrade information section says that this MB supports Intel Pentium Gold G5420 and 9-nt generation of Intel CPUs (65W TDP versions). But this MB used i3-8100 CPU before with compatible bios version. Rus version of PC 590-P0025ur page says that CPU can be upgrade on 8-th generation of Intel CPUs. Can i install now Intel Pentium Gold G5420 or I3-9100 cpu in this MB with old bios or i need 8-th gen. CPU to recover PC?
Thank you.

You can install different CPU as long as it is on the list. Normally newer BIOS will cover older BIOS as well.
