Part 1

• Check your motherboard book for a compatible CPU
• Buy one that caters to your needs, and a cooling
  system that works for the CPU, provided the CPU
  doesnt come with one.

Part 2

• Power off your computer, and let the components
  cool down.
• Take the case off of your computer
• Remove the cooling system from the CPU thats in
  your computer, and then remove the CPU. Refer to
  the motherboard book on how to do that.
• On Socket 775 CPUs, theres usually a lever that
  pops up the CPU.

Part 4

• Finally, put the case back on your PC, reconnect
  everything, and turn the power on.
• If it turns on, then you did a good job! Good
  Work! Now get back to work!
• If not, then take it to a computer store, and ask
  them to fix it. (That is, if you didnt screw up
  your motherboard in the process!)
