The motherboard in that machine (as far as I can tell) has the Q67 chipset which is only compatible with 2nd Gen.

Note: For desktop boards based on the Intel® Q67 Express Chipset, Intel® Q65 Express Chipset, or Intel® B65 Express Chipset, upgrading from a 2nd Generation to a 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ Processor isn't possible.
