Can HPE ML30 Gen9 support Intel Quick Sync CPU

[randman]

I have two HPE ML30 Gen9 servers. One has the Intel Xeon E3-1230 v5 CPU (3.4 GHz). The second has the Intel Xeon CPU E3-1240 v6 (3.70GHz). I'm currently using ESXi 6.7 on them, and run Plex on one of the servers.

I'd like to upgrade the CPU of one of them to an Intel Xeon CPU that supports Quick Sync. Can anyone recommend what Intel Xeon CPUs (that support Quick Sync) will work with the HPE ML30 Gen9? Will the HPE ML30's even support Quick Sync if the CPU supported it?
