HP Pavilion dv6500
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I am looking for the best and the max configuration processor that supports my Pavilion dv6500 notebook. I reasearched online and found that my laptop's chipset supported a  very few extreme series processors and those were with the highest clock speeds and largest L2 cache memory my laptop could support. But I don't know for sure whether those extreme series processors are supported by my laptop's BIOS. Could you give the list of core 2 extreme series processors supported by my laptop.

 

Chipset : Intel GM965 Express Chipset

BIOS : Version F.22

The manual does not have one listed.

Look at page 21.

 

But take a look at this link:

The two Extreme CPU's are 44W (A little hot)
