Hello The_Real_Sans-, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!
To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!
Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/gamingpc) if you have any questions or concerns.*

No. You would need a whole new motherboard. Unfortunately, motherboards are specifically made for either Intel or AMD CPU’s
Sure, buy it then throw literally every part of it away but the case & ssd and find components that fit with a new motherboard, ram, cpu, cpu cooler, power supply, and gpu.
As much as I respect your dedication to find a pc to upgrade – this isn’t the one. Maybe create a post with a budget you have and others can help create that budget PC. There is not much here worth keeping and yes it includes windows 11 pro but nobody buys these at retail cost as there are other ways to obtain windows .
Short answer: no.
Long answer: If the PC does not use propietary parts then you might be able to replace motherboard ram and CPU but it will probably cost you more than the price of that pc. Also a lot of prebuilts computers use propietary parts which make them hard to upgrade.
