Question about a Dell Optiplex computer

[Gaetan Mailloux]

Hi

I have a Dell Optiplex GXa computer, with a PII 300 mhz cpu.

Can I replace that cpu by a PIII cpu ( 500 mhz, 512 cache, 100 mhz fsb,
2.0V core) do it's motherboard can take that PIII cpu ??

Thank

Bye

Even if it did run, the GXa is a 66MHx=z FSB machine only, so a 500 MHz
PIII would run at 66/100*500 = 333MHz, hardly worth it!
