Is Dell Optiplex360 upgradable to a strong CPU

The desktop motherboard uses the Intel G31 chipset and can support the Xeon L5420 E5440 and E5450 processors from the 771 to the 775. However, it needs to be done as follows:

1. Because the L5420 E5440 processor is installed on the 755PIN socket, it needs to be turned 45 degrees, and its positioning gap conflicts with the protruding positioning of the slot.

2. The above operation is easy to make mistakes and damage the pins in the socket, so it is best to spend more money to buy the kind of CPU that has been cut to locate the notch, and install and use it directly. As shown in the figure below; <

3. In the BIOS of some G31 motherboards, there is a lack of micro** that supports server version CPU, and you may encounter an error prompt after installation, or you may not be able to recognize the problem. At this time, you need to go to the motherboard's official website**The last version of the BIOS update the ROM, and after flashing, the CPU with 771PIN can be fully supported.

No, the reason is that replacing the CPU requires the support of the motherboard, that is, the correct CPU interface and the correct motherboard chip. OptiPlex's motherboard is equipped with an E2200 motherboard with a G31 chipset, and no Xeon CPU is compatible.

Generally speaking, no, check the parameters, Optiplex360 is a business computer, and the motherboard is G31.

If you want to upgrade Zhiqiang:

1. The power supply may not move.

2. G31 is not compatible with Zhiqiang by default, and you need to change the interface and brush the BIOS.

It is recommended that you change to a higher one.

You sent a long day of configuration, you forgot the most important hardware, is the motherboard of the host platform, other hardware depends on it to work, if the motherboard performance is very low-end, it can not support the upgrade of other hardware, this is the so-called motherboard qualitative theory, that is, the configuration of the host starts from the motherboard.
