Hi SDH:
Thanks for your suggestions. Is the following the CPU you are recommending:
Intel SLAEJ Xeon E5345 2.33GHz/8M/1333 Socket 771 Quad-Core CPU Processor LGA771
-- $6.99 with free shipping
Regarding hearsinks, you wrote:
3. Hopefully you'll already have two heatsinks/fans.
See photos below -- I only seem to have one hearsink. The other CPU spot on the motherboard does not appear to have a CPU nor a heatsink, if I'm correct about what I'm seeing.
Would appreciate any additional suggestions you have. E.g. should I buy one of the "Intel-SLAEJ-Xeon-E5345," or maybe two? If a buy a second CPU, it seems I would also need to buy a heatsink for it. Corect?
My inclination, at the moment, and depending on your suggestions, is to buy one of those CPUs, and use my existing heatsink.
Would that work? Would I see much performance improvement?
Again, thanks for the information.
