Hi, a little help needed. I dont want to build a PC, i just want to squeeze a last year or 2 out of what i have. I realise im just squezing the last bit of life out of my PC, but i'd just invested in a GTS250 graphics card to find out my CPU is bottlenecking it.

I'd say i was a casual gamer, so im not looking to run everything at full whack, currently i've only come across 2 games that my CPU cant hack which are Star wars force unleashed special edition & prototype. I know my MB is no longer suported so i have the must current bios im going to get, version 3.16 Its a MSI CUBA MS-7301, its an OEM motherboard for a Packard Bell Imedia 2470, so there is no support for it on the MSI website. Would i be safe in assuming that if i match the socket (LGA775), 533 / 800 / 1066 MHz FSB, and achitecure then a processor would most likely be compatable? I was looking at Intel E6600 & E6700, any comments whether these would likely be compatable, or even if there are any suggestions for a faster chip?, I realise im going to be restricted to the bottom end on the Core 2 duo range. No i think the only C2D it can support are the Conroe chips. From the P/B website it says.

The motherboard built into your computer is the Packard Bell Cuba. Its main features are: * Support for the Intel Celeron, Conroe and Pentium 4 processors in Socket LGA775. * Supports a maximum memory size of 2 GB. * Intel Pentium Hyper Threading technology with FMB Mainstream 2005 and 2006 support * Intel Pentium D Dual Core technology support So im currently looking at the E6600 or E6700. Hi - I have a PB Imedia MC2770 with the same mobo as yours - did you upgrade your CPU & if so, which one did you go for and did the upgrade provide good results?
