HP Recommended
Product: Pavilion 690-0073w
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I was researching this motherboard on this computer and the hp website states you can put an 8th gen i7 inside this computer. But this computer came with a 9th gen i5. I looked up the motherboard and I see that the 9th generation i7 and i9 is compatible. Their is even a i9 chip with the same 65w as the i5. Their are a lot of people with this computer online looking for answers like mine. Is it possible to put a i9 cpu 9th generation in this computer?   This is a 3 part question also. Now for the GPU. This computer came with a gtx 1660 ti short single fan. Is it also possible to put a rtx 2060 super single fan (same size) in this computer. There is a wattage increase from the 1660 ti 120w to rtx 2060 super 175w. Last question is the ram. I see on crucials website this motherboard can handle 64gb of ram. But the hp website said only 32gb. Any help in this would be appreciated. Thank you.
