I am looking to add an additional processor to my 2900. I am not sure which generation 2900 it is, service tag is [ADMIN NOTE: Service Tag removed per privacy policy]. I believe it has a 5405 xeon. Also would like to remove the 2 gigs of ram it came with and replace it with 8 gigs of ram. I have searched and found some trouble people are having with adding an additional processor I guess my question is what sort of problems would I have? The system has had no firmware upgrades or bios updates since it was bought (everything works) so I see no need to update anything.. yet.
The ram I was wondering if the board would support anything higher than 5300?
