Hi everyone. Recently I've been helping my older brother piece together a budget gaming machine. My friend happened to have a cheap Hp pavilion p6-2013tr which has an h61 motherboard in it. (Foxconn Cupertina 2). I've already upgraded the ram, and psu. I was originally planning on putting an i5 2400 in it but I've been hearing more and more about the xeon e3-1220 which is roughly the same price. Any idea if this motherboard has bios that would support it? I have a cheap dedicated graphics card that he can use so he doesn't need integrated graphics. Thanks for your help!
HP OEM Xeon capable?

Probably not. See here for a list of compatible CPUs.

There are no Xeons on the list, therefor the BIOS will likely not recognize the CPU properly, if at all (unsupported CPU error message).
