Re: What is the highest CPU I can out in this


The serial number you provided is for a Proliant 300 with a 450 MHz processor. The fatest processor supported in the system is 600 MHz. See the QRG at this web address for the processor switch settings.

You will have to install the latest ROM BIOS upgrade to support any processor that is faster then the one you have. See this web page for the system ROM upgrade diskette.

Verify your system ROM ID, and then download the ROM update that matches your system.
