Check the chart on the link I posted below and it validates system board part number 4JN2K can support up to 150 W TPD processors (6252, 6428, 6242, and 6240)
NOTE: PowerEdge R440 with system board part number 4JN2K can support up to 150 W TPD processors (6252, 6428, 6242, and 6240). System boards with previous version part numbers can only support up to 140 W TDP.
Check the list, on the link below, for any CPU that is less than 140 W TDP should work with your existing motherboard that is not 4JN2K.
