AMD CPU upgrade from Athlon 4x 640 3k to Phenom II x6 2.9g 1065T-95, maybe 3.4 later?

I've looked everywhere, and I feel I may have 'bricked' my BIOS, so I need to attach a 6.11 or 6.11a bios to 'flash' the HP 6710f with a USB drive first!

After looking everywhere, I think I'm also needing to find some 'special' bios to get the x6 working in this x4 bios machine, it was 6.11?

PSU 450 antec, 16gb 1333 1600, 128 SSD, msi 1g vram, everything else original!

I had been PCI wifi, but I just 'found' the wlan card 3 months ago, so I hooked it up and I've been using it since?

But could I also 'retrofit' a nvme/m.2 card in it, some seem the same size, but 2260 ONLY because of video card slot?

I know PCIe is the other route, for this 10 yr old VERY FUNCTIONAL machine using Win10Pro, as I'm asking this question from my HP Elitedesk 800 i7-4790 3.6g!
