First of all, hello.
I have a B460M-A PRO LGA1200 socket motherboard. My processor, an i3-10100f, is underpowered for most tasks. I want to upgrade my processor without replacing the motherboard.
When I look at the motherboard page, it says it supports 10th-generation Intel processors, but when I look at processors that support an LGA1200 socket, it also supports 11th-generation processors.
I want to get the best I can afford. If anyone can help me with this, if it supports 11th-generation processors, as I said, I'd like to get the best.

I think the answer is no. the socket is the same but it looks like only 10th Gen CPU's can be used on that board for some reason.

Q: Is the B460 Motherboard Compatible with 11th Generation Processors?
A: 11th Generation Intel Desktop Processors are not compatible with motherboards based on B460 and H410 Chipsets.
