    Hi, I have a Dell C521 with a AM2 socket.  However it have a weird heatsink.  You'll need to look up pictures. I want to upgrade the Cpu for 60 to a max 100 bucks.  I don't think the the problem will be to find a CPU but to find one that will work with the built in heatsink.  Also it's 90nm and a AMD  athlon 64 ...
