Question Motherboard compatibility with a CPU dilema

[Snowie76]

Greetings!

I have a dilema rn with something, I've got my hands on an I7-10700e (Brand new for free), Looks like a great CPU and a worthy upgrade for me (Currently running an I7-6700k).



Official Intel Link to the CPU: https://www.intel.com/content/www/u...-16m-cache-up-to-4-50-ghz/specifications.html



Thing is, I cannot find this CPU on any of the LGA1200 motherboards as a supported CPU.

I know that these CPUs are built into IPCs and Embedded Computers and what not, Am I out of luck on this one?



Thanks!

Yeap, you're out of luck on this one, or so it's what my search has lead me to say;
