What CPU can I upgrade to for my Dell E510

[huppjack13]

Hello,
I currently have a Pentium D 2.80 ghz with 3.00gb of ram.
I need to upgrade for running Sims 3 because my current CPU runs with high usage.
What do you reccomend?

This thread should answer your question: http://en.community.dell.com/what-do-i-buy/for_enterprise/f/4516/t/19145882.aspx#19269043 It looks like your motherboard supports 95W processors only; therefore a D960 won't work.
