I see on the motherboard specs that i can upgrade the cpu to Rysen 7 3700x 65w. Can i also upgrade to Ryzen 7 5700x 65w?

Thank you.

@BigGus78,

Your HP Pavilion Gaming - TG01-0023w (6YR56AA) according to: https://support.hp.com/in-en/product/product-specs/hp-pavilion-gaming-desktop-pc-tg01-0000a/model/37..., is fitted with the HP Erica motherboard with SSID: 8643.  The product specs for your desktop shows these CPUs:

First thing I did was to look at the UserBenchMark [dot] com website for your Erica motherboard-based PC performance benchmarks: https://www.userbenchmark.com/System/HP-Pavilion-Gaming-Desktop-TG01-0xxx/160592.

Reason being that if the Ryzen 7 5700X is compatible with the Erica motherboard, it would almost certainly show up here. Unfortunately, the fastest CPU for your desktop appears to be the Ryzen 7 3700X .

And when I checked AMD AM4 socket compatibility for the Ryzen 7 3700X here: https://www.cpu-upgrade.com/CPUs/AMD/Ryzen_7/3700X.html, it shows that the Ryzen 7 5700X is not mentioned as being compatible:

This Table suggests that MAYBE the Ryzen 9 (PRO) 3900 could be compatible -the TDPs are right too, but that also depends heavily on HP allowing for compatibility.  And since no Erica motherboard Users showed up with the Ryzen 9 processors either, it is doubtful that they are compatible, or chances would be very high that it would show up on UserBenchMark.

Hope this was helpful.
