I have a dell precision workstation 420 with a single Pentium III 667Mhz processor installed. I have a second processor of the same family, model and speed that I wish to add. I have run into two issues which I have had great difficulty getting answers to:
1) The first processor is rated for 1.65 volts. The second processor is rated for 1.7 volts. What concerns or issues are related to mixing processors of different voltages? Can it be done? How?
2) The first processor is cooled by a large heat sink and a system fan. The second processor has a smaller heat sink and its own fan. I could not find a second power connection for this second fan. How do I go about getting power to this second fan if there is no connection for it?
My Mobo is a DCA200 if that helps at all.
Thanks for any info.
