Do you think this can upgrade a Dell Inspiron 530? Old Cpc is Intel Core 2 E4500@2.20 ghz. Thanks!!

Yes, I just upgraded my inspiron 530 to this E8400 processor. It worked well, just make sure after you install it to run "search for new devices option". If it doesn't find the new processor, just delete the driver for the old processor and it will recognize the new one.

It sure can. I currently work at a repair shop for cell phones and computers. I have one of these for sale right now that I upgraded to an E8400 and 4gb of ram. It should be a simple swap. Just remove the old one, clean the thermal paste from the heatsink, apply new paste to the processor, and you are good to go!

The Inspiron 530 has an motherboard based on G33M series, of which FSB run up to 1333 MHz, and supports up to Core 2 Duo processors. This processor C2D E8400 3.0 GHz can upgrade your Pc perfectly.

Mary, this is Mark. I was trying to edit one of my earlier posts and accidentally deleted them all. I looked up your system and there are many driver updates for your system. go to this site:http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/Product/inspiron-17r-n7110?dgc=IR&cid;=259428&lid;=4647851Click the "analyze system for updates" button and let it scan your computer. It should then give you a list of the updates you require. Once you do this feel free to call me and I'll walk you through the rest. 702-817-4914

I am not sure if it's possible to upgrade to the latest technology, it has limited slots and physical internal space to add memory, upgrade processor and so on.. I sold this computer already cause it is discontinued but when I asked that question the geeksquad [best buy] estimated around $400 if you provide the parts..

I really don't know, look up the specs online and see if it takes a PC2-5300 DDR2 module or not.

As long as your Dell Inspiron has a HDD/SSD slot for it and -ALL- of your drivers are updated (Including BIOS and the SSD Firmware), then you should be fine. Just remember to map out the local drive after installation by giving it a letter (such as D: or E: if your main drive is C:), sometimes it won't automatically do it.

yes! you will be able to add a sata disk like this in dell inspiron 530, as i see it have 2 free sata ports in the motherboard

I Don't know, but you can go to the dell web site and contact support to see if this is a compatible CPU. Just email them and they will respond If you have time you can look in the manual download area to see if there are any specifications for your computer

No I have a Dell Insppiron 1525---anyways , Yes it works very well-thank You

Sorry, but no. The Dell Inspiron 660 does not have any PCI open slots, or any PCI slots at all, for you to install this card. That was one of Dells budget desktops and they did not come with much of anything for anyone to do any upgrading them.

The Dell Inspiron 660 has and 1155 socket on its mother board, so yes this processor will fit inside that desktop. Currently you should have the Intel Core i5-3340 processor3.10GHz (max Turbo speed of 3.3GHz), 6MB Cache in it. If you do I would not upgrade as this is a "QUAD" core processor and not a single core. Unless you overclock this computer, which by your question leads me to know that you don't, this three hundred + dollar dollar processor will not do much if anything for you.

Find model of your motherboard, go online to manufacturers site and read thru the specifications to learn what type and brands of memory they support. Most of the memory makers also offer compatibility information on their sites. Personally I find that Dell, HP and others make the computers so its impossible to upgrade from what they built. Depending on age of your's and the OS you may be better off with a new tower. XP Support ends in April 2014 so unless your upgraded to Win 7 thats another item to consider..... Good Luck

Hi, Well, I have Dell inspiron 1545 & it works fine with it but I m not sure about Presario, You need to contact the seller/vendor....... Thax

Perhaps the memory is the same type but this is faster than what the Dell calls for.... also Dell says the E1705 can only have 2Gb max. Others do report it can take 4GB. To be safe I'd recommend getting a 4Gb kit like this one 4GB 2X2GB Memory RAM for Dell Inspiron E1705 200pin 667MHz PC2-5300 DDR2 SO-DIMM Black Diamond Memory Module Upgrade
