@DALEJI Speedstep and Savvi have added some very valid points here.
In addition to what they have said, I don't believe the intel HD530 graphics chip in conjunction with the H110 chipset will work with the 7th Generation Intel procs.
The Optiplex 3050 supports the 7th gen core i5 and i3, but not the i7. I suspect the power draw is too much.
Logic and spec would suggest that it may work, I just can't guarantee it.

the last support CPU is here. I7 class.
i7-7700T - CM8067702868416 / BX80677I77700T / BXC80677I77700T
the new kaby lake can be 15% increase in performance compared to their predecessors.
upgrade the BIOS, and try one?
$200 it will cost you to find out, new CPU. i7-7700
a lot of cash just for, 15% why do that or need it, IDK?

@Dell-Alan D I've put the i7-7700T in these 3050 SFFs. They're lower power and seem to work fine.
