Can I Upgrade from i3 6100 to a i3 9100 Both LGA1151 Sockets
The motherboard us a LGA1151 Socket board and has DDR4 Ram, Is it possible to put a 9100 cpu in the board? as the socket is the same, and the ddr4 ram is the same and both come from the lake family, So is it possible to upgrade?

If you look up the make/model of your motherboard, you should find the compatible CPU list on its support site. A motherboard that supports 6000 series CPUs will not support 9000 series ones.
