broke CPU, time to upgrade,

Lyniclee21 · 04-10-2005, 05:34 PM

OK, This is the deal, while cleaning my Compaq desktop (MS-6577)
I accidentally broke a pin off my Intel chip,

(don’t ask) Bummer huh, so I was wondering since I have to buy another processor anyway, I may as well upgrade, My question is what would be a good compatible upgrade chip for this model, the chip I broke is a Intel celeron 2.8GHZ, 400FSB
Budget: $150 or under
any help would be greatly appreciated.
