Will it work correctly on Intel® Desktop Board D915GUX and Intel® Celeron® D 351?

Officially this one is not supported:

http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/d915gux/sb/CS-026954.htm Intel® Desktop Board D915GUX — Supported Processors

But, since the just slower clocked brothers like the D346 are supported, I think that its at least worth a try with the latest bios.

In setting the processor to the motherboard all works well. But what happens next? I ask about the correctness. In "support" said, - "does not support". But they work!

[ppik1]

Not supported is a wide field. It can mean something in between:

- Our database is not up-to-date, CPU will be detected correctly and everything works fine.

- CPU has just not been tested, will be detected correctly and everything works fine.

- CPU won't be detected correctly, but that might be just a cosmetically issue or some features don't work

- CPU won't be detected correctly and won't work stable

- CPU won't be detected and system does not start

- CPU won't be detected and CPU will be destroyed.

- CPU does not fit mechanically

I think in your case one of the first three cases might be right ;-)

Thank you. I also adhere to this opinion. This motherboard supports Intel® Pentium® 4 540 3.20 GHz 800 MHz 1 MB and above. Why it does not support Intel® Celeron® D 351?

But here's the answer support groups:

Agent Comments:

"Hello Alexey,

Thank you for contacting Intel Customer Support.

I understand that you would like to know if the Intel® Desktop Board

D915GUX will support the Intel® Celeron® D 351

You can check the complete list of compatible processors for the

Intel(R) DESKTOP BOARD D915GUX here:

http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/d915gux/sb/CS-026954.h http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/d915gux/sb/CS-026954.h

From the previous list you will notice that the fastest Intel(R) Celeron

processor is the 346 and currently the Intel® Celeron® D 351 is not

supported

Please do not hesitate to contact us again if you need further

assistance."

Why so? The big question.
