upgrading the poweredge t110 cpu
hello all.
i've went out and bought a core i5-760, 2.80 Ghz, 8MB cache, LGA1156 cpu to replace the old pentium dual core cpu it currently has.
has anyone done this?
i believe this should work since its the same socket?
any advise?

I assume that the original processor was the Pentium G6950 mentioned in your ARK comparison link.
http://ark.intel.com/compare/48496,43230
I would not change the Dell HSF unless it was clearly inadequate. There might be a concern about the different TDP (73W vs. 95W), but you could confirm adequacy by monitoring temperatures during a stress test.
Q: Did you ever replace the CPU?
These CPUs shipped originally from Dell:
One Dual-core Intel® Celeron® G1101
One Dual-core Intel® Pentium® G6950
One Dual-core Intel® Core™ i3 500 series processors
One Quad-core Intel® Xeon® 3400 series processor
The PET110 chipset is 3400 (less likely) or 3420 (more likely), depending on the source.
The i3-500 series appears to require a 3420 chipset.
The i5-600 series appears to require a 3450 chipset.
The Dell specs match this Intel board very closely: Intel® Server Board S3420GPRX

So, I can buy this for example: intel Xeon e3-1275 | 3.4-3.8 GHz | 8mb | Cache Socket lga1155

No, that CPU is not compatible with the T110 II. Shop from this list of supported CPU's:

That CPU is not on the list either, so I don't know. It might work, or it might not. It has a BETTER chance of working than the i7-3770 which is not supported even by the server's chipset. The server's chipset supports the 1275, but it is not in the list of supported CPU's for the T110 II … there may or may not be a good reason for it.
1270 or 1280 are your best bets.

What seems like it should have been a sign that it wouldn't work is that the T110ii has a LGA1155 socket and Cylent77 was trying to get a 1156 cpu to work in an incompatible socket.

My above statement is incorrect. Cylent77 was not trying to put a 1156 cpu in a T110ii but the T110 which is a 1156 socket. It would not work because the i5 that he was trying to use does not support ECC which is required for the T110 server.
The Xeon 1275 would probably work in a T110II. The 1275 is the 1270 with the graphics on board. Again, the i7 would not work as it does not support ECC ram.
