Product: HP 6300 SFF
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I was given an HP 6300 sff and am looking for options to upgrade the CPU. I have already added a low profile GEFORCE 730 which is using 49W of power. I want to upgrade to a quad core CPU and am looking at the i7 2600.  Given the PSU limitation is there a 4 core CPU which you would recomend which would draw less power. The i7 2600 draws slightly more power than the i3 2120 which is currently installed. Am I missing something or would I be able to upgrade to the i7 2600? Any help would be appreciated.
