Hello, your query is clear. Can you confirm if the C2Q Q6600 can be installed into your DX2300MT motherboard? The HP website lists the chipset as 946GZ, but details about compatibility are missing.
It appears the approach might function correctly. Occasionally, these collections lack items or rely on CPUs the maker promises will operate. For details, check the Vogons discussion here: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=61571
I chose to replace this average motherboard with a P35-DS3L and Q6600 using Scytche Mugen 2. I can also acquire another set of 8GB HyperX 800MHz DDR2 RAM.
