First find your systems current CPU looking it up here" Mac mini A1176 listing i.e.T5600.

Then review this: Intel ARC db looking up your systems processor specs and the one that you are thinking of. Make sure it matches up correctly.

Yes it can be upgraded and I believe Intel core 2 duo T7600 (2.33Ghz) may be the fastest compatible processor. You can upgrade to another speed as well just remember to make sure the processor you buy will fit in your M socket on the motherboard.
