Poweredge 2600 cpu upgrade

Hello all,

First post here so be gentle. I'm a Networking student and i have a Poweredge 2600 w/ dual 2.4 Ghz xeon's with a 533 Mhz  fsb 604 pin, and i want to upgrade to 3.2 xeon cpu's w/ the same fsb but have a 1mb cache. Will i need to upgrade the bios for the new processors, and my biggest question, is this recomended? This machine is part of my server lab and i would rather not damage this machine or face costly repair. Is this a fairly easy process? Any help or advice would be great.
