CPU Selection

I would like to upgrade to a better CPU, I dont know how good of one my system will support though. I currently have a 2.66 GHz Celeron D processor and a 533 Mhz front side bus, could I upgrade to a pentium?

If I can upgrade I dont know about cooling, I have a 6 bay Micro BTX (uBTX) mid-tower case. It has a 120mm variable speed fan in the front that has a shroud on it that fits over the heat sink. I think it has a 95mm variable speed fan in the rear.

Im not sure if I will need more power to, it currently has a 305 watt dual voltage power supply.

I am also planning on upgrading my ram from 512mb to 4gb.

any info would be apreciated.

Ok, Ill try to find it. I take it it must be located right on the board somewhere? I will open my case and see if i can find it .
 
If your motherboard supports it you can use it.

Get the best you can for that motherboard or get a new one and get a qx6850 :D

We would need to know the model of your motherboard.

Ok I found a number on the board, dont know if it's what you are looking for it was on a white bar code right on the board, it is AZSE55202984 AA D16711-104
 
I looked up your processor and it's a socket 775 so you have many options.

Download CPUz to find out what motherboard you have.
