Product: OMEN 30L Desktop - GT13-0014

Hello,

 

I want to upgrade the CPU on my OMEN 30L Desktop - GT133-0014. How do I know if the CPU I select is compatible? Any suggestions? I primarily use the PC for gaming, specifically World of Warcraft.

look at the HP "quickspecs" for your "specific" model system to see which cpu's hp has approved

as this model cam in numerous configurations

note that if a cpu model in the same family came out later, it may also be compatible even though hp has not yet tested it 

however this is not a guaranteed upgrade method as the computers bios may lack the necessary microcode to support it

 

so if the system came with a amd 5xxxx cpu then any other cpu in that line should work
