Does anyone know how I can update blue tooth 4.2 to 5.0 without changing the chipset?
I am trying to get my new headphones working which are ANC blue tooth version 5.0.

Hi:
Unfortunately, you would not be able to upgrade the internal wifi/bluetooth adapter to one with BT 5.0 unless you bought a desktop wifi conversion kit, because any wifi card that comes with BT 5.0 requires two antenna wires be connected to the wifi card, and your PC only has one.

The easiest thing to do would be to install a USB BT 5.0 adapter.
