Dell inspiron 5675 cpu upgrade
I'd like to upgrade the cpu on my pc as it currently has an AMD Ryzen 1400 quad core and its getting a bit outdated. i was considering upgrading to the Amd Ryzen 5 5500 6core or the Ryzen 5 3600. and i have done the most recent motherboard bios update. Would this be possible?

No -- these only support the Ryzen 1xxx CPUs. Dell never released firmware for subsequent generations, so unless you 're willing to write your own firmware, that's it as far as upgradeability.

@ejn63 well that's bad. My cpu is getting quite outdated. Do you know if anyone has any firmware rewritten?

You'd have to search for that -- and even if someone has, there will be a limit at the hardware level as well.
