• Processor upgrade
    6 replies, posted
Is there a website or something that can point me to upgraded processors that will drop right into my existing socket and motherboard? My current processor is a Core 2 Duo 2.13. Socket is a 775 LGA. My motherboard is an ASUSTek P5N-E SLI. I'm not after anything crazy, maybe a quad core that gives an appreciable step up from what I have, say $200 budget.

[QUOTE=paul simon;18931404]I beilieve Facepunch has spoken.[/QUOTE] I believe you may be right. Thanks, guys. I don't have to worry about anything else on the motherboard being incompatible, I take it?
If this is your mobo: [url]http://asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=KyHOsOKWujC2QguJ[/url] then it will support 45nm processors.
