Will my motherboard support i7 7700

[Tangypeachy]

Hi just wondering whether the motherboard of this desktop (Odense 2-k) will be able to use a i7 7700. At the moment I have the default i5 7400 in, also just out of curiosity will this motherboard support the overclockable edition, the i7 7700k. Thanks

Greetings Tangypeachy,

Welcome to the forum.

I am not an HP employee.

Your PC's motherboard/chipset will support the 7700. But the TDP (91 W) is in line with running a 7700k??

The 7700k is not listed as being tested by HP.

The 7700k will bump up the base clock frequency from 3.6 GHz to 4.2 GHz but you will not be able to overclock if this is your intention. The 7700k requires a 91 W TDP. Your motherboard only supports a 65 W TDP when looking at the general PC specifications.

Just realized you asked this question twice. REO51ST answered the question and I concur.

Also checked the PC specs against the motherboard specs. PC specs state a 65 W TDP. Motherboard specs state a 91 W TDP???

Only an HP engineer familiar with this motherboard knows the real answer.

Very confusing.
