Dell dimension c521 is it am2

[Joethetechguy]

i need to know if the dell dementions c521 is aq am2 am2+ or am3 socket

Your dell is am2, probably with a limit of 89 watts for the cpu. I would recommend the 5600 dual core as a possible upgrade. Or you can post your question on one of the dell forums.

I recently upgraded a C521 with a 65w X2 5400+ and 2GB of RAMs. That thang flies
