Question PC Upgrade

[wdasilva]

Hey guys! i wanna upgrade my PC, it's for development purposes, I don't know much about hardware but i'm thinking of changing it for the Intel core i99900k processor, i don't know if my pc supports it though. Below is the link to the processor specs along with my pc config

any motherboard that support 7th gen will not work with 9th gen

on the motherboard should support up to i7-7700k, good upgrade compare to the i3-7100

Hi rgd1101! Thnks for your answer! The problem with i7-7700k is that it doesn't support Wimdows 11. So if 9G is not supported by my motherboard i'll have to cancel my order... Thanks again fpr your help!

Cheers!

Why do you need Windows 11?

Why do you need Windows 11?

Hi! Actually, at this moment i don't need Windows 11, but i've seen some articles saying that in about 2 or 3 years, there will be no more Windows 10 updates, so I think it could possibly lead to some applications' breaking changes.

Cheers!

windows 10 support end on Oct 14, 2025.
you should plan on getting a new system by then

Hello Friends!

At the end I decide to buy a new laptop with an i7 10 Generation Processor, 16GB Ram and etc... For App development i think it fulfills my requirements, i'm not very happy with the fact that Intel i7-7700k is not supported by Windows 11. I can't use an Intel Core i7-9700K (9th Gen) on my old PC which has an Intel i3 (7th Gen) even though both processors have the same socket (socket 1151LGA) ?

I'm sorry for my bad english, thanks in advance!

Cheers!

Hello Friends!

is it impossible to have an Intel Core i7-9700K (9th Gen) on my PC which has an Intel i3 (7th Gen) even though the Core i7-9700K processors have the same socket, which is 1151LGA ?

Can you rephrase that question?

 

[Nighthawk117]

You have a board designed for 7th gen, the fastest CPU you can drop in is an i7 7700K. I wouldn't do this however given the price of newer chips like the i5 10400/11400.

1. What do you use your PC for?

2. What sort of budget do you have available?
