Can I get some opinions about replacing an ancient CPU with a slightly less ancient CPU. I currently got a Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 @ 2.66Ghz (Duo core duh) And I'm looking to replace it with the best available CPU (So either Intel Core 2 Quad or Intel Core 2 Extreme) for the same socket that being LGA 775, is this recommended for a budget? And anyone has some experience with replacing CPU's?

Currently looking at a modiefied Xeon E5440 for LGA 775, looks promising.
Edit: My motherboard seems to support it. -

Ye, there seems to be modifications for them to make them from LGA 771 to LGA 775.
