The Core 2 Duo is an LGA 775 socket motherboard and Chipset with DDR2.

The Core I5 is an LGA 1155 socket motherboard and chipset with DDR3.

So No this is not and will never be an option.

The way to get there is to find an Optiplex 790/990 or newer.

If you choose to keep your 780 MT, it's max is Intel Core 2 Quad 9650 3.0GHz.
