Hello Everyone

I am new to these Forums so please excuse me if I make any mistakes.

I have recently purchased an Intel E6700 Pentium Dual-Core Processor - 3.20GHz and I am trying to discover whether my old ECS P965T-A (v 1.0b) motherboard, that currently runs with a Core 2 Duo E6300 is compatible. If its not compatible, can anybody offer suggestions for a new motherboard that is compatible. I have been searching the internet and only seem to be able to find boards that list an E6700 running a 2.66GHz.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

Almost any 775 CPU that does not have a FSB higher than 1066Mhz.

Best two boards would be ( DX38BT ) or the best DX48BT2 .Now these are out of production , So Ebay is one choice , they would go for about $160 to $225, Depending on New or refurbed, or used , Just don't buy from anyone that states No Returns.

Thanks for your advice.

I bought an ASUS P5QPL-AM - Intel G41 - Socket 775 - PCI-E (x16) - DDR2 1066(OC) - 800 - 667 - SATA II - uATX - VGA which works perfectly with my Intel E6700 Pentium Dual-Core Processor - 3.20GHz, 2MB Cache, Socket 775, I also added an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2 CPU Cooler to give better QUIETER cooling
