Is a better CPU than the one you are asking about.

Are you looking at two separate systems or one since you have Intel and AMD mixed together?

Be easier to comprehend and read as if I am looking at this system compared to this system.

As far as the PSU see if this helps explain what Veeg is stating.

ik the CPU doesn't support the motherboard for my new PC but I'm trying to get a CPU for my old one that is LGA 1150
 
Not sure why you post non relevant information in your OP MaxTST, all it has done is confuse matters.

Regarding your actual CPU question, are you having to replace the present CPU for some reason, the HP ProDesk 600 G1 Small Form Factor PC Product Specifications here state that it only supports 4th gen i5 and i7 CPUs meaning that an i3 CPU will not work.
 
Being that the OP revisited the forum but chose not to reply their answered thread will be marked and closed.
