No. You can't swap an AMD CPU into an Intel compatible motherboard. To know what CPU you could possibly use, we need to know the make and model of the motherboard.

A full list of your components will help us determine if a CPU upgrade is even worthwhile for you.

You not only have an old motherboard, it is an HP motherboard. That will limit what CPUs you can use.
