Hi guys, I currently owned an HP Pavillion PC and I'm trying to update my CPU from an i5-10400F processor to a i7-11700K processor, yet when I tried installing it, my screen wouldn't turn on.
To install the i7-11700K processor, it requires
LGA1200 socket (which I have)
H470 chipset (which I have as well)
Am I doing something wrong? or missing something? any help would be appreciated!

Welcome to our HP User Forum!
@banhien is correct, there are no signs online that anyone was able to fit an 11th gen Intel processor in an HP Pavilion Gaming - TG01-1020 (9EF33AA) desktop, such as here: https://www.userbenchmark.com/System/HP-Pavilion-Gaming-Desktop-TG01-1xxx/195603.
Btw, this is not an Intel H470 chipset or LGA 1200 issue, it is because HP doesn't support it.
Kind Regards,
