Hi there.

 

Ive bought an Intel Core 2 Duo e8400 3ghz, and replaced my e4500 2.2ghz with it.

 

But whenever I try to run anything it actually runs SLOWER than my e4500, I cheked my BIOS configuration and it said my processor speed was 1998 ghz...WTF?

 

I notice that when I replace my processor, my cooler fan started running much faster, Could it have something to do with the processor cooling?

 

Or is it something else?

 

 

PLEASE HELP
