    The T7700 should work for you; its 2.4Ghz, and i believe most socket P compatible processors will work though some may need a bios update.

    Find a series of processors that matches your socket and find one rated at 2.5Ghz

    OP: You can upgrade to any 1st gen Penryn processor - T8300 or T9300 are good value for money.
