It should support i5-12400 or i7-12700 CPU.
An "F" CPU, eg i7-12400F, will be less expensive than an i7-12700. BUT "F" CPUs don't support onboard Intel Graphics, and the onboard Intel Graphics ports won't work. That means you must have an add-in video card to use an "F" CPU.
A downside of an "F" CPU is that if the add-in video card ever fails, you won't have the option to switch over to onboard video, and the PC won't be usable until the add-card is replaced.
Regardless of what upgrade you choose, make sure the latest BIOS is installed before swapping CPUs....(edited)

Both good and if price difference isn’t too much get the i7
