I have a hp compaq d350 sff and want to change the processor, but I need to know what type of processors are compatible with the motherboard of this computer.
Please help mE
THANKS!
Your best bet is to work from the existing processor model number, since manufacturers can change the motherboard in a given model of computer from one range of serial numbers to the next. They sometimes also offer the same model of computer with different processors and motherboards at different prices. So you can not tell much from the model number of the computer.
May I also advise you that changing a processor requires a little special procedures, equipment, and knowledge these days. It is not just unplug one and plug in the other any more. If you do not know what you are doing you could easily "fry" the new processor from excessive heat, due to incorrect installation. So look for some help if you are not sure of the details for replacing a processor chip. It's not hard, just that some things that may not be obvious are critical.

Could you provide the model number of your motherboard please? You can find this by opening up your computer and looking for prominent numbers etched into the motherboard. I would check the HP site, but I do not know if you have changed out the motherboard. Better to get facts first.
