Question : Problem: Which Xeon?

I have a HP ProLiant ML350 G3 server that I want to upgrade.

It currently has one Xeon 3.06Ghz 512K L2 with 533Mhz FSB

The board is has room for a second processor.


What I want to do is replace the current CPU with two Xeon 3Ghz 1MB L2

My questions:

1)      Will the mobo support L2 1MB Xeon?    

2)      The 1MB L2 Xeons that I can find seem to have an 800Mhz FSB…will they work in my mobo (will they automatically revert down to 533Mhz)?

3) Also, is there any point in removing my current Xeon 512K L2 and replace it with a 1MB L2?

4) Could I go even faster than the 3GHz chip.

5) Basically, I don’t know what my mobo is with this server and I’m having problems finding it out?

Thanks

Answer : Problem: Which Xeon?

Here's Intel's official website with Xeon listings: http://indigo.intel.com/compare_cpu/default.aspx?familyID=5&culture=en-US
There is no 533 FSB 1MB cache CPU.

You can see for yourself which socket the cpu you are interested in has: http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/Xeon.html
The only trouble is, that cpu doesn't exist.
