CPU UPGRADE
06-28-2022 10:09 AM

I have a 10-year-old HP Pavilion H-8 1160cto desktop, with Pegatron Motherboard, and an Intel core i7-2600, 380 GHZ. (Total core 4). Now I would like to upgrade my CPU. I would greatly appreciate, if someone would help me, explain to me, as to what model of CPU I can replace my current ^Processor? Again, I thank you in advance.
