Been a fan of LinusTechTips for about a year now and I finally Decided to Share My PC Build, BUT It is all about what I got working

 

First specs:

Dell Optiplex 360

750GB HDD

4GB DDR2 Ram

XFX R7 240(I know it sucks but I like it and it was all I could afford for gaming ;-;)

Here is is...

 

XEON X5450 - This mod converts LGA771 to LGA775, and the Optiplex I used worked with A02-A07 bios versions no custom Bios needed

 

look up on ebay or amazon 771 to 775 sticker then follow YT vid

You will have to cut the tabs that prevent you from installing the wrong CPU in the socket off

 

WARNING: I will not be responsible if u bend a pin, I do not recommend this but I took my hand to fix my Pins and what do u know, It worked(btw my motherboard could have been dead)
