Searching for top CPU models compatible with socket 1151 and a power consumption under 65 watts.
Hello. You're looking to upgrade your HP EliteDesk 800 from an i5-6500 to a more powerful 65W TGP CPU. The system currently has a 90W power supply, so you'll want something under 65W. Consider processors like the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X or Intel Core i7-13700K as suitable replacements.
For optimal performance, consider models similar to the one provided. Slightly reduce clock speeds. Likewise, the second link works effectively when adjusted accordingly.
The simple answer is no, but also why? A better chip would likely exceed the power input limitations, especially given the probable wear on the power supply. I'd say you're practically stuck with the i5 6500 and better off replacing the platform. There's plenty of mini PCs on the market today that accept laptop style power supplies with onboard DC-DC to accommodate.
This page details the Intel Core i76700 processor, offering up to 4 GB of cache at a speed of 8 MHz.
LGA 1151 refers to two different platforms - Skylake/Kaby Lake (100/200 series) and Coffee Lake (300 series). The OP is on the former, so 8000 and 9000 series parts are not compatible. Additionally, the motherboard for an HP Elitedesk will not allow for underclocking, undervolting, or any other power tuning options you'll find on DIY boards.
It's mainly Intel's responsibility. The naming of the new socket 1151-2 led to widespread confusion. I've noticed many frustrated comments from users on forums and elsewhere about why their i5 8400 or i7 8700 aren't working. Also, the ability of certain custom BIOSes to support different boards adds another layer of complexity. Some claimed Coffee Lake wouldn't work with 100/200 series boards, but that was likely a misleading statement intended to push sales of new hardware.
