Dell Precision 490 CPU Upgrade

Question

Hello,  I have a old precision tower 490 that I received for free. I know this question has been asked a lot over the years, however, I am still confused. I have a 5130 installed already into the board (PN: ODT031) and would like to upgrade this pc to the maximum it can support in terms of processors.  Can any of the quad cores run in this PC? If so, which is the highest end model? Thanks, Marton   EDIT: spelling
