Omen 25L GT12

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

@Fr0stjs,

 

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,
