Hi,
I have a HP XW8600 workstation with 2 Intel Xeon X5470/ 3.33 GHz,1333 MHz FSB, 120 watt (Quad Cores) processors. I am looking to upgrade to the fastest processor available for this socket (LGA 771), which I understand is the Xeon X5492/ 3.40 GHz,1600 MHz FSB, 150 watt processor.
Question is: I am currently running 16gb (8x2gb) of PC2-5300 667MHz RAM; will I be able to run this new processor with my existing RAM? If not, can you tell me what kind of RAM I will need?
Thanks!
