I have the 1,83GHz Core Duo version with 677MHz FSB. Can’t locate T7200/T7400 (known to work as C2D upgrades) - but can get T7300 which has 800MHz FSB. Will T7300 down-clock to match motherboard/RAM? Perhaps this MacMini will make it to OS X Lion.. :-) Thanks in advance
The T 7300 intel processor was used in just one iMac. Most are for mobil machines and I think have the P socket. I don’t have time to check right now but I believe your machine uses a M socket. Check here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Int…
I don’t know how old (or new) this post is. It’s common knowledge that the T 7600 will work. It is available on eBay for about $100.00 US. Update just received your note: Here are two different blogs which discuss the T 7600 and other compatible ones. And an eBay link. I’m considering doing the same so I can operate Lion/Lion Server on my Mini. Good luck! http://www.123macmini.com/forums/viewtop… http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.p… http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=t760…
