I'm trying to upgrade the CPU in my ancient HP Compaq desktop, but I'm having trouble finding the specs on what CPU's are supported by the mobo.

The P/N on the mobo is sp#441388-001
The current CPU is a Pentium Dual E2160

I'm hoping to upgrade to something like a C2D E6xxx or higher. Is this possible? If not what would be the best CPU my mobo will support?

Thank you, any help will be appreciated

Holy ancient! Basically you can upgrade to CPU's using Socket 775. I believe you can only upgrade to Core 2 Duos or Core 2 Quads. No i5s or i7s, sadly... I guess on the bright side, the CPU's you can upgrade to are fairly cheap! No heavy cost haha. Get a Core 2 Quad over a duo if you can.
