it should work since its s LGA775 processor, but not sure about the FSB increase, dont think the BIOS woudl allow it.

I have several 380's and one has the P4 EE 820 that is 3.2GHz, the BIOS autimatically adjusts to the speed of the CPU.

not the speed the FSB thats what hes asking for.

The point I made is all the cpu's I have seen the BIOS auto adjusts for its specs, FSB included but I gues I did not make that clear enough.

well even then, though the BIOS would adjust to teh FSB and specs of the CPU, teh FSB cannot be changed in the Dell System BiOS to my knowledge.

Wow, if teh BIOS auto adjusts the FSB to the proper speed then why would you need to adjust it manually since it is going to be at the correct speed?
Do you get it or what? In simpler terms there is no need to manually adjust the FSB since it will be at the speed the CPU runs on. No Dell supports FSB changes. A few XPS's allow raising the multiplier on extreme edition cpu's but that is not the same thing.

You cannot adust the FSB but you do not need to since the BIOS will do it automatically clear now?

yes sir i know, please refer to the original posters question, all i did was answer.

he wanted to see if teh FSB could be OC'd to a faster speed using that processor, under the right circumstances, that 805 can run as fast as a Pent. D EE, when its OC'd and watercoled.

I missread his post every single time till just now! Thanks for your patience :)
I was not getting the fact that he wanted to OC rather that he thought he would have to adjust it, my bad ;)
