The Z370 motherboard supports the i7-8700 processor, so you can upgrade it later without replacing the board.

Z370 is compatible with 8th and 9th generation systems, though prebuilt units using custom mobos may only recognize CPUs offered for that particular machine. Check the product details or manufacturer updates for any specific CPU support information.

Z370 is compatible with the 9th generation Intel processors, but requires a BIOS update from Dell, which you can usually locate on their support site. If that isn't available, other 8th generation CPUs like the 8700K should function without issues, though performance gains would be limited. A replacement motherboard is also an option, though Dell sometimes uses unusual form factors for their boards, so verify compatibility before purchasing.
