I'm new in the gaming world and I have some questions that I need to clarify. I have an HP 8704 motherboard and I have an Intel i5-10400 processor and I would like to exchange it for an Intel Core i9-11900. I would like to know if it is compatible and if you have a processor that you think is better than this one, please let me know. And I'd also like to know if it's compatible with amd processors. Thank you

Welcome to our peer-to-peer HP Community Forum!
Your HP Dorado motherboard (SSID: 8704) is not compatible with 11th gen Intel processors.
Look, I understand why you think it is -or rather, should be, because the Intel H470 chipset would allow 11th gen processors.
Just not on an HP System OMEN 25L Desktop GT12-0xxx.
The best processors for your PC would be an i9-10900K or i9-10900KF.
Hope this was helpful.
Kind Regards,
