[SNOER]

I purchased a hp 710-0010 gaming desktop pc with a dyson envy 17525-1 berks motherboard with a i3 8100 cpu, is it possible to upgrade the cpu and if so what cpus can I upgrade to? Thanks

Also is there a limit to how big of a m.2 ssd i can put in this model?

The Berks motherboard can support both Intel 8th generation and 9th generation core processors such as the i7-8700 or the i7-9700.

You can install as large a capacity NVMe SSD you want as long as the drive is single-sided, so it fits in the M.2 slot.

The PCIe generation of the NVMe slot is 3.0.

If I were to upgrade to the i7 9700 would I need to upgrade the power supply from the 310 watt?

No need to upgrade the PSU.

The 310W power supply would be fine.

Both the i3-8100 and the i7-9700 are 65W processors.
