get a cpu that IS on the compatible list.

1. Flash to F2 BIOS to support all the CPU's
2. Don't worry about the E7500, it is on the list.
3. Get a cheap quad core off ebay.

GA-945GZM-S2 (rev. 6.6) CPU Support List

Note: If it lists "N/A" is the "Since BIOS Version" column, the CPU is not supported.

That said, I'm surprised you are able to run the E5300 processor on that motherboard. In my opinion, your best bet is to not waste money on a processor that may or may not work. Go with the best (or at least most reasonable) processor the motherboard definitely supports, which would be the Intel Core2Duo E6700 (unless you can find an Intel Core2Extreme X6800 on the cheap).
