Good morning everyone, I have dusted off a corporate HP Compaq dc5700 machine which comes with a Pentium D 945 and sometimes as a hobby I like to update this type of machine.

I was checking that at the time the best configuration that HP offered was with a Dual Core E6700 - https://support.hp.com/bg-en/document/c00808962 - and it would give double the performance, but I was reviewing and I found which can support some Core2 Quad.

Which would support the processors that come with 1066Mhz fsb, in that case the Q6700 and would give 4 times more power according to passmark:

As I did not find the official information from HP or Intel of processors supported by that chipset, I wanted to be sure before purchasing the processor.
