Hi all.

 

I am going to replace my Dimension 4300 with an Optiplex GX270 motherboard into my 4300 case. I know there are three versions of this board. The one that will fit well into my case would be the small mini tower board, correct? I also know they have a small desktop and a small form factor board, but I believe those are not the right size.

 

My next question is:

 Will the GX270 small mini tower board support my current P4 2.4ghz 400fsb CPU? I have read in some places that the only 400fsb CPU that this board supports is the Celeron.

 

Also; If I order the motherboard online, for example, from ebay, would I also have to get a new motherboard tray that this GX270 board would latch itself onto? Or would my current tray for my current mobo be good enough?

 

If you anyone could please answer these questions, I would be greatly appreciated.
