as a test simply find the cheapest 26xx/16xx cpu off ebay that is not on the HP list and see if it boots if it does then all others have a very high chance of also working as long as the wattage is the same or lower than the HP cpu's.

3. Based on HP’s internal analysis of original manufacturers’ list prices of ISV certified desktop PCs and HP EliteDesk 800 Workstation edition with optional P400 graphics as of July 2018. Aripug. 2. I've a Z420 which has installed a Xeon E5 1620, with a tdp of 130W.For example, here I've a couple of xone 2670, (115W) can i use one of them insted of the 1620?Looking on ebay there are a lot of Z420 sold with E5 2620, e5 2670 and with e5 2630Lreguarding your cpu question(s) all i can say is that the ones HP lists are known to work.My question is: Can I install every xeon e5 V1 cpu on my Z420 gen 1 motherboard or only the officially supported cpu?if interested google on it for more detailed information on how win 7 OEM activatesIf the system will work fine, do you think W7 oem license will accept the cpu change as legit?I'll have to change the primary/boot disc but I've only the COA on the case...But when I purhcased the Z420 the seller did not provided to me any dvd.....Or Can I install a xeon 2620, which have a great 95W tdp even if it not inclued into the official supported list?So, theoretically, I can change everything (Cpu, hdd, gpu, ram) except the motherboard to still use/activate the serial written into the COA, is that right?google how to change windows 7 retail to OEM or simply buy a HP win 7 OEM disk off ebay or a win 7 retail key off ebayInstalling a diffrent cpu (from the same 26xx or 16xx series that is not on HP's supported list should work but you will have to try it yourself to be sure, since the cpu's you want to use are all of lower wattage than the offically supported ones i am of the opinion that it should work unless HP has used a bios whitelist that only allows the cpu's in the list to workyou can usually even change the HP motherboard with a diffrent HP motherboard in most cases and it will still self activateFor the installation of windows 7 I'll use my windows 7 pro retail disc and I'll try to activate it using che key written on the COA....I hope it will works fine anyway...I want to use the OEM license (COA key).Unfortunately I've not the restore disk.boot block date 2011: only v1 XeonsP.S.The win7 license will work even if the cpu is not on the official cpu supported list?while some HP install sisks did check the bios string for a specific text, most HP restore disks don't really care, all they check for is the HP "golden" oem key that is embeded in the bios and also the HP cert on the win 7 disk and bingo self activation (the serial on the case is not used, it's simply there to show that MS got it's feeIf possibile I'd be really interested to use a Xeon E5 2630L which has a 60W TDPYeah I've thought the same...same socket, equal or lower wattage compared to the HP cpu support list...they should work.I'll use this workstation as a server.......so I need a cpu with a lower tdp...and because it will be used as backup/shared file platform it will not need high power/performance cpuI already have a couple of e5 2670 but I'd like to try to purchase for a few bucks a E5 2630L.....it has just a 60w tdp, which is perfect for my purpose to use it as backup/sharing files server.Thanks for the detailed infos!
