What is the best CPU that can be put on Acer Aspire GX-781 (U3E1)?

Currently I'm struggling quite a lot with my computer. Searching for the "best" CPU available for my current motherboard has yielded next to no reliable information, so now I turn to this community to see if anybody has found where the maximum CPU model sits. The one I have at the moment is Intel Core i7 7700 @ 3.60GHz Kaby Lake 14nm Technology

PC Health Check points out that this particular CPU doesn't conform to Windows 11 demands and I feel like it's a pretty big bottleneck in my machine right now. But I'll drop a screenshot of my Speccy readout and maybe someone can point me in the right direction

I'm pondering whether it's viable to get my hands on an i9 model, but at the moment I don't have a clue whether the motherboard supports it and then I'd also need to find out what the power requirements might be, since I'm not sure about the strength of the one I'm currently rocking.

Thanks in advance
