@MarkkuR , welcome to the forum.

 

The current motherboard is Form factor: uATX: 24x24 cm (9.4x9.4 in).  If you want to use the processor the motherboard has to have a LGA 1151 socket.  HP motherboards are made to their specifications.  Therefore, the connectors in the case are not always compatible with retail boards.  Also, the Recovery software will not work once the motherboard is upgraded.

 

I suggest that you choose a motherboard manufacturer and contact their Tech Support for help.  I like MSI products.
