Hi guys,

 

First post as I have recently bought a 2nd hand Dimension 1100 and am considering upgrading the processor. 

 

The best I can tell it has a an Intel 865GV chipset based motherboard, according to intel's website (http://compare.intel.com/PCC/showchart.aspx?mmID=135,138&familyID=10&culture=en-US) I can install a Pentium D (dual core :) ) processor.

 

Has anyone got any experince of upgrading the processor on this type of motherboard (e210882), will it take a socket 775 or will I have to go for a socket 478 based solution.

 

Currently installed is a socket 478 celeron D 2.80 GHz installed.
