Hello,

 

I bought a Dell Inspiron 15 (aka 1545) that only has a T3400 CPU in it.  I was thinking about putting a P8600 processor in, but I can not find any documentation what socket type is being used.  From the Intel site, it does appear that the P8600 is offered in a couple different socket formats.

 

Can anyone tell me what the socket type is and is there any reason would prevent upgrading the system.  A P8600 and P8700 CPU is an option that the system can be ordered with.

 

Thanks,
