CPU Upgrade for 0WG855 Motherboard
Currently have XPS 410 with Core Duo E6400 @ 2.13 ghz and 1066 FSB on a Dell 0WG855 motherboard. Just upgraded BIOS to 2.5.3.
Am I correct that I should have no issues upgrading my CPU to an E7600 @ 3.09 GHZ with 1066 FSB on my current motherboard? New CPU comes with CPU specific fan and head sink.
Also adding new power supply and GPU at same time.
Thanks,
Ross

The E7600 will not work in an XPS410.
The best you can do with a Core 2 Duo is an E6700 and for a Core 2 Quad a Q6700. Anything about those will not work.
Also, the heatsink/fan that comes with the XPS 410 will cool all compatible processors including the two just mentioned.
