Product: HP ProDesk 400 G7 Microtower PC (9CY18AV)

Hello to all,
I would like to upgrade the CPU of my pc which currently has a Pentium G6600. Would the motherboard support an i3-10100f or an i5-10400f? Will the pc work with a Quadro P620?
Full specifications:
G6600 (4.2GHz Dual-Core)
12Gb 2133MHz
Quadro P620
M.2 NVMe WD SN550 1TB
Crucial BX500 1TB + Toshiba HDWL110 1TB
180W PSU
Have a nice day

The motherboard does not have a socketed processor which would lend itself to being upgradeable.


The processor is selected when customized pre-purchase


Each processor is  integrated (soldered) onto a systemboard along with the  appropriate chipset.

Here is the spec page for HP ProDesk 400 G7 Microtower 

https://support.hp.com/th-en/document/c06918483

You can see the supported CPU's in the listing.  I do not see the ones you asked about but there are numerous CPU's to choose from.

It would seem that the Quadro P620 should work, but I have not seen that configuration.  I did see where some HP PC's BIOS did not get along with the Quadro P620.  If you have to have that GPU, perhaps try it.  And then report back with success or non-success for other users.

The quadro P620 works well with my pc but the 10400 is supported, why not the 10400F which has just the graphics part in less?

According to the info on this site

https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Intel-Core-i5-10400F/Rating/4079

The i5-10400f will require a new LGA1200 motherboard, since the chipset  that supports the i5-10400 does not support the i5-10400f

@TheOldMan 

Thanks for the correction. That was not what I found in my research yesterday. My usual keyword proficiency failed me this time.

I see. But would a 10400 be good with a 180W power supply?

According to the comparison the Intel Pentium Gold G6600 uses 58w while the Intel Core i5-10400 uses 65w.

If there are no other additional items from original configuration, that small amount should not matter.
