Optiplex 745 cpu upgrade ?? Advise please
Hi, I've just aquired a Optiplex 745 with the 0MM599 Mobo fitted, apart from maxing out the ram would I be able to upgrade the cpu, currently Intel Duo 2 6400, having scanned google I'm more confused than when I started, it currently has a 280wpsu fitted so please bear this in mind when thingking about what cpu to fit. Obviously eBay is the cheapest source for bits for these nowadays and I have a limited budget tooboot ! Thanks for any advice you can give.
