Tricky ..  It's possible to see if processors support vmx by looking
it up at http://ark.intel.com/, however there is no way that I can see
to get a list of all Intel processors that fit the socket.

An alternative would be to start with the list of processors on the
Wikipedia page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGA_775

and then look each one up on ark.intel.com.

Note in the past I have found mistakes on ark.intel.com ...  YMMV.

Rich.
