i7-8700 with an Optiplex 5060 SFF
Hi guys,
I'm just fixing up a 5060 SFF, currently with an i3-8100. I've got a friend offering me a i7-8700, which is listed as a compatible processor in the Dell user manual for this unit but I notice that it lists the chip as 35w, when in-fact, Intel specs it as 65w. Any issues do you think?
Thanks.

you may be reading off a i7-8700T which is 35w
