PowerEdge 6850's with dual-core CPU's?

Hi,

I've got seven 6850's each with only 2 CPU's and I'd like to get additional CPU's for them - how can I tell if my 6850's support dual-core CPU's?

Do I need to find out what generation they are? I don't have easy physical access to them but I've got DRAC and OMSA access to them.

The current CPU's are mix of the following:

Intel, Xeon MP, Model 4 Stepping 1, 3166 MHz, 667 MHz

Intel, Xeon MP, Model 4 Stepping 9, 3666 MHz, 667 MHz

What I'm thinking is to fill up some of the servers with old CPU's and then ideally get dual-core CPU's for the servers that are left without CPU's.

Any advice would be much appreciated.
