November 8, 201213 yr Hello. I have a Dell Inspiron 580 with a dual core Intel 3.2ghz processor. I would like to upgrade to the best possible CPU that will work with the motherboard. Does anybody know what the best CPU is that will work? I already have a 700w supply installed and 8gb DDr3 ram. I am also running a GeForce GTX550Ti video card. Any help and advice will be greatly appreciated! Thank you! Ben Weaver SWA8485
November 9, 201213 yr You should put in the motherboard model , that would help the members. But I doubt you put in an i5 on that board. Ryzen 5 1600x - 16GB DDR4 - RTX 3050 8GB - MSI Gaming Plus
November 9, 201213 yr Author I believe the motherboard may be a 033FF6? I believe the current CPU on it is an i3? Ben Weaver SWA8485
November 9, 201213 yr Author I was told that the motherboard has an 1156 CPU socket and the best processor it will handle is an i5. Does this sound correct? Ben Weaver SWA8485
