Xeon -> Multicore possible?

legituser · Post by **legituser** » Mon Apr 21, 2008 2:59 pm

I have a Dell Precision 450,
2x Xeon 3.06Ghz CPUs

Is it possible to drop a multicore cpu into the existing motherboard?

Thanks!

Nope

HTT = Hyper Threading Technology.

Having a hyper threating processor would only over heat more and put risk to your life.
