Hi, Guys,
I am upgrading the cpu in an HP Elitedesk 800 G5. It currently has an I5-9500 and I want to install an I9-9900ks. The latest HP bios supports the I9-9900k and there is no update to support the I9-9900ks. So, what will happen if I install the I9-9900ks anyway? I can imagine several alternatives: It simply will not work, It will work as if I had installed the I9-9900k ignoring the ability of the I9-9900ks to turbo boost all 8 cores, or it will do something odd with the BIOS commands.
Have any of you any recommendations or speculations or some experience using a CPU which needs a BIOS update but does not receive it?
Please advise,
TIA,
Larry
