That's a much older socket type. It was the first LGA (Land Grid Array) that Intel used -- instead of the pins being on the CPU, they're on the motherboard socket. That's a very old design, though, in PC terms -- they replaced it with the LGA 1156, which was replaced by the LGA 1155, which was replaced by the LGA 1150, which is going to be replaced by the LGA 1151.

As for gettiing a new CPU...he might be able to find a used one, but he's limited to maybe a Core 2 Duo or Quad.

Well, he wants to buy a Intel Core 2 Duo E5700 3.0Ghz. I just didn`t understand a thing of what you said :)), so, a LGA775 fits with a 775 one?
Seems like he got a MS-7091 motherboard.

I wouldn't buy that old of a CPU. That motherboard is for P4's only. More than the socket matters. Chipset and bios support does as well. If he can, have him take it back and get something more current. Even a lowly Haswell Celeron is faster than an E5700.

I hate to break the news but I don't think that CPU will work. If I'm wrong, someone correct me. But the motherboard is the MSI MS-7091. When you search for the MS-7091 manual, the supported CPUs are:

Supports Intel® Pentium 4 Prescott LGA775 processors in LGA775 package.
Supports up to Pentium 4 3XX, 5XX sequence processor or higher speed.

Now, the socket is a 775 and it may work with a Bios update. But I haven't been able to find anything about it.

I did find this.

You know, I`ve found on another site that this CPU fits.

http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Core_2/TYPE-Core%202%20Duo.html

Just look at that and give me your opinion again.

You don't have to be rich to get something low end but superior to what you are looking to do.
