motherboard replacement for hp tp01-2256

[Gazoo43]

This is great advice but the wrong computer. My HP Envy desktop is a TE01-1xxx, HP Product 319K1AA#ABA. A 16 gig Optane module is HP factory installed on a HP 8767 (Baker) motherboard.

I have modified the factory version by replacing the 12 gigs of RAM with 32 gigs Corsair Vengeance LPX. It's 3200 Mhz defaulted to 2133 Mhz upon installation. Two (AMI) BIOS upgrades haven't changed the RAM speed. The original CPU is replaced with an i7 10700F and an Nvidia GTX 1050Ti GPU. I recently installed a HP 500 watt PSU. My OS is Win 11 Pro. 

After a recent OS Upgrade instability appeared and i was forced to Reset. The Reset corrected the problems. But not content to let well enough alone, I replaced the i7 10700F CPU with an i7 11700F CPU and dropped some thermal conducting paste onto the CPU socket. I cleaned the socket with "Hoppes No. 9" - a gun cleaner - a soft toothbrush and my household vacuum cleaner. My HP Envy refused to boot: emitting, "dot,dot,dot  dash, dash". Local techs at Best Buy/Geek Squad found a faulty RAM socket. Removal of the 16 gig the RAM stick allows the computer to boot with the i7 10700F CPU and 16 gigs of Corsair RAM and function properly.

QUESTION: I can buy a Refurbished & Warranted HP Envy desktop from eBay and move my CPU, GPU, RAM and PSU to that unit, or, buy a new Motherboard for my computer...? Please Advise

hi

"This is great advice but the wrong computer"

it seems that your message has been moved, I do not understand this comment?
"My HP Envy refused to boot: emitting, "dot,dot,dot dash, dash".
sorry, I don't understand DOT dot?

"Removal of the 16 gig the RAM stick allows the computer to boot with the i7 10700F CPU and 16 gigs of Corsair RAM and function properly.
"
finally the computer works, now?

If you buy another computer, functional, what do you think? because why remove what works in one to put it in a computer that works?
more clearly perhaps, what do you think you gain, since you could buy a computer with the same motherboard?
My advice, maybe not the best, but:
Quite to change everything, why not look for a motherboard (not HP maybe), which could accept your new components, CPU GPU RAM ...
and a non-HP box, which would be adapted to this motherboard, and the possibility of also changing the PSU at will, rather than the proprietary system, which limits you, in the choice of a graphics card..
you could have a computer, much more scalable..
