Microprocessor

[BaldEagle]

Hi 

My system is fitted with an Intel Xeon CPUE3-1225v3@3.20Ghz Microprocessor

Is there a faster Microprocessor that I ca install.

Thanks in advance

This is your processor from 12 years ago:

It uses socket LGA1150.

But, there is much more.  You need to ask your motherboard provider what processors THEIR bios supports.  Once you do that, view the resulting list for a faster processor.  An upgrade processor must be socket, chipset, AND BIOS compatible.

Hello BaldEagle,

Thank you for posting in Intel Community.

As per suggested by @AlHill earlier, referring to the motherboard provider would be best to ensure your upgraded processor is supported.

Please refer to the link below which should highlight your current processor in use is LGA1150 socket type.
