    mobo cpu compatibility

    Cool, thanks. I got the Athlon 64 x2 6000 Dual Core 3.1ghz. Do you think the stock fan will be enough? The stock processor is a Sempron 2.6ghz.

    mobo cpu compatibility

    I need to find a list of compatible cpu's for an AMD m2n61-AX. I'm hoping an AMD FX 4100 Quad Core 3.60ghz will work.

    Upgrading Intel 531 cpu

    Thanks 13thmonkey. I have AMD Sempron le-1300 2.31 in now. Will athlon 64 x2 6000+ Dual core 3.1 or AMD FX 4100 Quad Core 3.6 work? If so, do I need to change the fan?

    I have an Inspiron 530 w/original processor. Will an Intell Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0 work in it???

    I want to thank you LookItsRain. The transplant worked great!!! Too bad that was my sister-in-law's computer. I have an Inspiron 531. Seeing the increase in speed on my sister-in-law's computer, I want to speed mine up. Any suggestions on cpu upgrade?

    Thank you LookItsRain. I've already upgraded to Bios Version 1.0.15.. I've never replaced a processor, but I've replaced stuff like sound cards, etc.. I've read up on the process, but any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

    It has the Intell Pentium Dual Core 2160, 1.8 right now. I'm almost positive it has the LGA 775 socket. Will the Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0 work? If so, do I need a bigger fan?
