Seems like that mother board belongs to a Gateway NX500X? Your title says you want to upgrade the CPU/Motherboard, if you are going to be upgrading the motherboard read the specs of the new motherboard you are interested in. If you are wanting to just upgrade the CPU, the NX500X comes stock with a Pentium M. Any CPU in the Pentium M class will fit your current motherboard. Sorry if this did not help!

itschop,

Thank you for your reply. Sorry about the heading, I just wanted to upgrade the CPU.

I'm glad to hear that any Pentium M will do the job. I currently have a Pentium M 1.7.

Regards.
