Hello Everyone i Have A Intel DQ965WC Executive Series Board And Im Looking At Getting The

Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 2.66Ghz Processor And Im Wondering If My Motherboard Would Accept Running This Processor? In The Compatibily List On Here Says It Is Compatible With Some Other Boards In This Series And im Wondering If It Is Something I Should Spend £150 - £200 On?

There Is A Intel Core 2 Duo 3.33Ghz Processor People Say Will Work On My Motherboard But The Web Site Says It Doesnt?

Anyone Able To Help Me? I Wanna Get The Best Processor My Board Can Take

Thanks In Advance

The Intel processors that you can install on this motherboard are only the ones listed on the following 2 websites:

http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/dq965wc/sb/CS-025983.htm http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/dq965wc/sb/CS-025983.htm

http://processormatch.intel.com/CompDB/SearchResult.aspx?Boardname=dq965wc http://processormatch.intel.com/CompDB/SearchResult.aspx?Boardname=dq965wc

If the processor model that you want to install is not listed in any of those 2 website, then it means that it is not supported by the motherboard.
