Go to SolutionOptiplex gx280 processor upgrade
Hi
I am looking to upgrade my pentium 4 530 3ghz processor that I have on my foxconn ls36 mb s775. I am unsure if this is the original mb of the computer, and I don't know if I can upgrade to a core2duo. I know it is kinda old, but still...
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Sergiu

Hi Sergiu,
No, your system will not support a Core2Duo. This thread lists some options.

You could use a P4 hyperthreading processor, but this is not a true Dual Core CPU.
