Dimension 5150 CPU upgrade options
Hello
I bought my Dimension 5150 almost 2 years ago. It uses a Pentium D 2.8 Ghz and his mother is an Intel i954G using socket LGA 775. I would like to know what are my options to upgrade CPU. If it is still possible to upgrade my CPU.
I did some research and saw that this motherboard supports CPU C2D. Responses of the other forums of stress that the upgrade of processor is impossible because Dell locks the mobo/bios, it is impossible to upgrade (it will never recognize the new processor). It's a shame if I can't upgrade my CPU because the rest is pretty decent. I have 3 GB of RAM and a HD3850.
If possible, Dell only updated for the customer? And what is the best processor I can get which is supported by this mobo?
Thank you.
EDIT: I double checked and it seems that there are a lot of confusion if my Board can support a C2D even if it's a mobo socket LGA775. List of site Intels C2D's as usable processor Intel 945 G express boards. BTW, I improved my diet to a 460 Watt cooler master.

I have 4 dell dimension 5150's and you want to update all the 4 fastest possible CPU for this old of a computer.
Would an Intel Pentium D 945 3.4 work GHz LGA 775 CPU SL9QQ 4 M/800 Presler Dual Core?
They now have PROCESSORS, 3.06, 524, 1 MB, PENTIUM 4 PRESCOTT DT, G1
Or what is the best I could get in these?
I have windows 7 and hoping to be able to get up to 10 but the 524 is not compatible.

The Pentium D945 is the maximum that can be used in the Dimension 5150/E510.
However, if you don't have motherboard 0HJ054 installed and upgrade the processor on most other motherboards will rise a 'incompatible CPU"at startup and need to press F1
The Dimension 5150/E510 does not support all of the processors Pentium G20xx series, these require a different motherboard and socket.
.
The motherboard for the Dimension 5150/E510 has a Socket LGA 775 and can't stand not all processors Core 2 Duo/Core 2 Quad, single Socket LGA 775, P4 and Pentium D can be used.The Pentium D945 is the maximum that can be used in these models.
Before upgrading the processor, make sure you have the latest version of the BIOS installed.

Before installing the processor, verify that the version of the BIOS A05 or higner is installed, when support for the latest processors has been added.

Tecra M5 - CPU upgrade options
Hello
I have a Tecra M5 PTM51E-02S01REN, which has a processor dual core 1.83 GHz T2400.
I also have a 'die' (graphics chip needs 2nd reflow!)
Tecra M45 PTM51E-0NC03JEN that has a CPU dual-core 2.33 GHz T7600.Can I swop the processors?
If this is not the case, what can I can upgrade the T2400 processor?Thanks for any ideas
First upgrade the processor is not really supported.
If you want to do this, then just at your own risk.
I read in the forum that many users have been able to upgrade the processor, but in any case, it was a difficult story.The chipset must support the new CPU, but even if the chipset would be able to manage the CPU, there is a question open about BIOS support.
So, if the BIOS does not support the new processor, nothing to do here -
Dell Studio XPS 9100: Case fan care? Cooler CPU upgrade options?
I want to upgrade the case fans in my XPS 9100, but I've seen much contradictory info in the actual specifications regarding size: are these 92 mm or 120 mm?
In addition, it is an i7 960: is there a compatible upgrade for the CPU cooler? I don't want or need to COO liquid: want to let it cool a bit. Basic time are constantly around 52 C.
I think that on all processors in the LGA 1366 socket, the hoses are the same. On the 9000, I used the cooler DBX - B on 4 different processors in the LGA 1366 socket. Any socket LGA 1366 cooler should operate, regardless of the CPU.
The DBX - B can be installed to direct the air in 1 of the 4 directions, depending on how it is mounted. I have mine pointing upward, to the power supply. (Note fan blows air in the direction of the fins in aluminium). Idea is to keep the heat away from the other components of the motherboard and direct it to two fans at the rear (one being in the power supply), which are tailpipes.

Dell Dimension C521 CPU Upgrade
Hi all. I have a Dimension C521 (feat) and I would like my CPU from a AMD Sempron (TM) Processor 3400 + ~1.8GHz to an AMD Athlon 64 X 2 6000 3.0 GHz 2 MB socket AM2 89W ADA6000IAA6CZ. But I'm not sure about a few things, that's why I'm here. I would like to know:
- If the AMD Athlon 64 6000 works with my computer of x 2
- What is the recommended BIOS
- If the fan the C521 comes with is good enough to keep it cool
- If a 280W 955.39BTU / h Maximum PSU is fine
- If you have any questions = D
Here is the owner's manual, if it'll help - ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_dimension_desktops/dimension-c521_owner ' s%20manual_en-us.pdf
Also, if I had to update my GPU, what would you recommend?
xXEblisXx
The Athlon 64 X 2 6000 + 3.0 Ghz, 89W Windsor, will work.
Before installing the processor, make sure you have the latest version of the BIOS version installed 1.1.11, with BIOS version 1.1.4 support AMD has been added.
The default fan and the PSU should be fine.

Dell Dimension E520 CPU Upgrade
Hi, I upgraded my CPU because it is too slow, and that I am I going to pay $ 80 instead of the usual price of $250. I would like to know if they are compatible with my system. All the I know is that they have the same type of socket (LGA 775). Here is the link: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115060CVF
Here's my current computer specs: 4 GB RAM DDR2 1 GB GDDR5 128 bit AMD video card, 1.86Ghz Intel core 2 duo CPU (valued at 3.33 Ghz) and a 305 power w.
If I need to change the power supply, I would love to know because I have one here that's 750w I could also use. Thank you.
Daren
* P.S: I know I need to update my BIOS because I am currently at version 2.2.1 and the most recent is 2.2.4 (or something like that) should I just brings it to someone to do it for me, or is it easy to update? I don't know where to find them, so if someone could possibly direct me, I BIOS Phoenix technologies.
Thanks a lot again!
DarenDussault
The Core 2 Quad Q9505 Yorkfield 2.83 GHz LGA775 95W shown in your link is not compatible with the e520.
All Socket LGA 775 processors, listed HERE are compatible.
There should be no need to improve the power supply for a processor upgrade.

Satellite 1410-303 - CPU upgrade options / tests
Hello
Sometimes I have a really rather old satellite S1410-303, which sports a * Celeron processor 1.5 ghz (256 k /400FSB). *
As I have the latest Bios installed (v1.40 / 03 Sept), I'm curious to know if it would be possible to switch to a Celeron faster, released around this time. I am aware that the CPU should match some criteria, even 256 k of cache / FSB / Northwood arch etc and I was wondering if an update to a Celeron SL75T might work?
The SL75T is a Celeron 2.5 ghz processor, it's a reasonable bump in speed. Sockets correspond to @478 / mPPGA too.
The only thing maybe the draw the fate/energy are higher than the amountsAny thoughts?
I am aware this Forum * an Italian guy tried putting a pentium 4 base FSB CPU @400 2.0 ghz in the same laptop computer and it didn't work *. So it seems Celeron only, probably 128 / 256 k cache according to.
Anyone have a list of definitive of what the BIOS v1.40 supports?
Thank you, john
Eh, it's very old piece of hardware, and it is not easy to pick up some info on this.
What I found is the info the 1410 has been delivered with different processors Mobile Intel Celeron:
1.6 GHz (1.45volts)
1.7 GHz (1.45volts)
1.8 GHz (1.45volts)Then maybe you can check if you can find a faster clocked at 1.8 GHz and update.
Sorry, but everything what s that I can write about it.

Dell dimension e510 CPU upgrade
Almost 2 years ago, I bought a dell dimension e510 with the pentium d 820 installed processor desktop computer but now I want to put the best processor in it it may take. I did some research and discovered it might support only the pentium d, pentium 4 hyperthreading w and that the pentium d 960 was supposed to be the best pentium d processor available. I bought a
now heres where the problem begins: I put it in (radiator and all), but when I plugged it in, the power of computers led turns orange and nothing happens; No start, display, diagnostic lights or a message saying incompatible processor. I put the back of 820 to and it worked fine but the same 960 post custom. I thought that maybe the processor could be bad, so I sent it back, but the seller (seller ebay w / 99% positive feedback) says that it worked fine when he tested and it sends to me.
I would like to know if anyone knows why it might not work, I need a different version of the card mother e510, make, it would be inconsistent, or I need to do something special (like asking dell for permission?)
According to everest, my motherboard is 0HJ054, a07 bios revision. any ideas?

Mainly interested in CPU upgrade at this time. I have download CPU - Z to determine my profile and I provide this stitched-together set screenshots of this program:
I just put the CPU of my Dimension 5150 friend successfully. I would only reproduce on my 2400 - a much smaller machine. This computer is mainly used for the casual internet browsing, and sometimes I watch a Youtube video. The only programs that really tax the CPU are my disk defragmentation and the program CCleaner. When I have a great session of internet browsing of 100 + tabs, the CPU also emerged at this time here.
I want to the maximum this computer using cheap parts upgrades, that I can buy it on eBay. On my 5150 friend, I bought a processor upgrade for $5 delivered and a thermal paste to ebay for 80 cents. I wouldn't mind buying a cheap video card and processor to upgrade this old workhorse
sva50233
The Dimension 2400 can use 400 MHz or 533 MHz, Socket 478, P - 4 Northwood or Celeron processor with a 512 k or more small cache.
You cannot use all processors Prescott [1 MB cache].
The maximum support of the processor is P - 4 Northwood, 533 MHz, Socket 478, 3.06 GHz.
Before upgrading the processor, make sure you have the latest version of the BIOS installed.
With regard to the video card, only the PCI cards are supported, no PCI Express card is supported.
The Dimension 2400 supports a maximum of 2 GB (2 x 1 GB Modules) memory DDR.

Satellite P100 - 216 (PSPADE) - CPU / RAM upgrade options
Hello guys,.
I just got a laptop Satellite P100-216 (PSPADE-01400UEN). (card: T5500 - GeForce Go 7600 512 mb, 200GB)
It has a Core 2 Duo T5500 inside and I intend to upgrade as well as the RAM to make a good laptop for my wife.
The question if CPU is supported (assuming that the latest version of the BIOS). I am interested in the series with FSB800 or same T9000 T7000 series (1066fsb) shall if possible because I can get them pretty cheap - I know that the T5500 is just 667fsb by itself, so I wonder if the higher FSB is supported or I stay with 667 Mhz.
Have searched through the net, but no information so far. Would not buy CPU only for it being not recognized by the laptop.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Kind regards
It is very nice for laptop and if you want to upgrade the RAM upgrade for your wife. In combination with the operating system pre-installed and optimized its own missus will be like to work on this machine.
Upgrade of RAM is quite problematic and you can do it alone. what you need to do is get the compatible modules and high quality.
I think now P100 has 2 GB of RAM, but you can upgrade to 4 GB.As compatible modules, you can use
TOSHIBA
PA3513U-1M2G (memory 2 GB DDR2-667 Kit) orKingston
KTT533D2 / 2G 2GB 533 MHz Module
KTT667D2 / 2G 2GB 667 MHz ModuleOn the CPU upgrade, I would just say that we forget. As a first step, it is not necessary to do so and secondaly - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm
