Compatible or not?

Finally my exams are over and I got a window of about 15 days till the next session; (10th grade, BTW) to upgrade my CPU from Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 to Intel core 2 Quad Q6600. (Because I can't in the next session due to studies)

 

Now my problem is that the C2Q isn't listed as compatible in the HP technical guide, but uses the same socket (LGA 775) as the C2D. The technical guide lists other C2Q's like: Q8200, Q9400, Q9550 and Q9650. Should I buy the Q6600 Or look for alternatives? Can you suggest some alternatives? 

Fast help is appreciated, as I will have to make necessary arrangements.
