Inspiron 560 Processor upgrade
I have an Inspiron 560 with a Core2 duo E7500. Motherboard is 0K83V0. I came into possession of a working Core2 Extreme QX9770 processor. I'm wondering if it's compatible with my motherboard (I know they're both Socket 775LGA). Bios version is A06.
So I'm left with 2 questions...is this processor compatible with my board and BIOS version? And would this cpu need additional cooling over the stock dell fan?
Thanks for your help!

I also have a 560s and am wanting to upgrade the CPU. What is the fastest CPU but yet the safest option as far as cooling?
What cpu cooler would you recommend? I need to be able to search & sort video/edit video/search through thousands of family pics and complete genealogy......
Thanks in advance.
