HP Envy 700-130
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

i have an old HP Envy 700-130 that came with an i5 processor. i have since took that processor out and installed it in another system, leaving this pc without a processor. i was thinking of getting a cheap processor and using this pc just to web browse. what cpu downgrades does this pc/motherboard support? i am looking at cheap pentium haswell processors as well as celeron haswell processors and just looking to see if these processors are supported by this motherboard before i buy. thank you.

yes, i know about cpu upgrades to this pc, but does this pc support Core i3 and Pentium haswell chips as well? they are all socket 1150 so i am thinking that the cheaper processors are compatible.

@JHeezy,

The listed processors on that page are the only CPU chips tested for that board.

Regardless of the semantics used (ie upgrades) by @Big_Dave, that is the list.
