Product: HP Elite Tower 800 G9 PC IDS Base Model

Can't I use the i9-13900T on an HP PC elite 800 tower G9?

 

This is a question I asked a few months ago.
I couldn't resolve the issue back then,
and although the BIOS was recently updated (to version 02.23.00), I tried again but it still didn't work.
Power constraints are likely the main reason why the CPU cannot be used on the PC, but I am curious as to why low-power CPUs are deliberately prevented from being used.

Greetings @rooai 

 

I don't think anyone else in this Forum can provide a more detailed explanation as to why your PC can't do a i9-13900T.

 

Regards
