How upgrade CPU in Dell Dimension 8400 from 3.0 to 3.6???
Have Dell Dimension 8400 with 3.0ghz HT CPU 5xx series with 1mb of L2
cache. LGA775
May be getting a cheap 3.6ghz chip that was pulled from a Dell without
the Heatsink.
Question 1: Can the current heatsink and fan in my Dell support the
3.6 GHZ LGA 775 (same socket as current 3.0 ghz) CPU or do I need an
upgrade?
Question 2: I know I may need some thermal grease but besides that do
I need anything?
Thanks, Patty
