No, you'd have to replace the motherboard. And if the front panel connector is that dell proprietary one--you'd need a new case. And new PSU. Generally: new computer if you want the i5.

shoot. Okay thank you. Could you recommend the best quad core CPU i could get for my system?
I use it for gaming mostly. Playing games like Skyrim, Elder scrolls online, Borderlands 2, and other stuff like that.
Thanks.
The Q8400 is a lot like the Q9650 with the newer architecture, and it is 2 years newer and better than CPUs like the Q6600 that cost about the same. The Q8400 costing just $50 is a steal and should boost your computer significantly.
What CPU do you have now? Let's make sure this will even be an upgrade. The Dell Optiplex 780 is still pretty modern.
