I currently have a Core 2 Duo at 2.3, 1 meg cache and 800fsb in an Aopen DE7000 Digital Engine pc. I was told by the seller that a T9600 2.8gig 6meg cache would work in this, even though it's a 1066fsb. I looking for a 2.8 or 2.9 with more cache for a HTPC, thus the possible cpu changeout. The memory is running at 1333 per CPUID and Belarc if that matters.

Here's info on the pc. Works great for a HTPC with the HDMI, but want to upgrade cpu for smother performance. Currently 6 gigs ddr3 sodimm and Kingston 120gb SSD. Thanks!

Eta both of these are 35 watt cpu's, so heat won't be an issue.
Eta 2 this is a PGA478 Socket P board.
 
I just purchased this cpu for $10.95. It should do nicely being 35watt and 6 meg caches. These make awesome HTPC's with builtin Invidea HDMI. They were originally designed to run constantly for digital signage, digital menu boards and such. They make a version for the I3-I7 series of Intel as well. As well as multiple HDMI outputs. Spannable HDMI. But more pricey. I paid $66 shipped for mine, love it. Thanks much again!

No prob on that. I always research current hardware specs on a new machine, to get to know it. I'm not looking for gaming blazing speed on this, more of burst video handling, thus the 6 meg cache. I use Kodi & SMPC to stream with and it has accelerators built in, for slower machines. I'm coming from a Acer Veriton N282G (atom cpu) and a android streaming box (way slow), with no native flash support, so this is a breath of fresh air. I also watch stuff in the browser (FF & Chrome), and that's where a machine shows true speed lol. As well as watch 1080P movie files. My wife was blown away by how much faster it's getting with each improvement. I'm not 100% sure of compatible stepping on the cpu I bought, but 99% sure it will be fine.

I had ordered this cpu last week and it arrived during the night last night. I may toss it in until the faster one arrives. Since I'll be installing a slim laptop (sata) DVD burner this weekend in it anyway. New thermal pads as well.

Yes sir. It was the original Pentium replacement, but was still listed as Pentium. Before they went to C2D from what I understand. Kind of confusing huh lol. That was throwing me off as well. The newer C2D have better architecture on streaming, voice chat, bigger caches, etc builtin, but no hyperthreading. In essence they were trying to expand and extend this socket set usability, probably until the I series was released.
