Forum Motherboards & Memory : Shuttle Trying to upgrade from dual core to quad

Word :    Username :           
 

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to figure out if my shuttle xpc ss30g2 can be upgraded from a dual core processor to a quad core processor. I was told by someone working at a local pc repair shop to google the motherboard model and see if anything comes up, but I had no luck with that. How can I tell if my shuttle pc can handle a quad core processor? It's an lga775 socket, fsb 800 and the last available bios update was 04-2008 if that helps.

Your motherboard only supports PentiumD/Pentium4 CPUs and unfortunately you can't upgrade to a quad core one with your motherboard.
