BIOS Version DELL - 14 BIOS Release Date 07/05/07I heard Dell's aren't upgrade friendly. Will this be possible? Any help is appreciated. Upgrading Dell CPU
Do you know specifically what chipset the motherboard has?Upgrading Dell CPU
Whoops, thought that was in there.The chipset is nforce4 SLI Intel Edition.
You can easily upgrade the processor in your 710. Just check which processors are supported by your BIOS and once you are ready to install just follow the instructions below. Make sure you apply the thermal grease you purchase with your processor correctly and it's all good.
