Hi, i was wondering about the Phenom II 955. I have a motherboard that only supports up to 95 watt processors. On the cpu list it says that it supports the Phenom II 955 because its only 95 watts(linked). But on amds websites (linked) it says its 125watts? can some cleirfy here what i should be buying because i dont wanna get the fx 4100 and find out it sucks for gaming. :??:

AMD's link: http://shop.amd.com/us/All/Detail/Processor/HDX955WFK4DGM

My motherboard's cpu list: http://www.asrock.com/mb/cpu.asp?Model=N68C-GS%20FX

then another problem is finding the 95 watt version to buy somewhere because Phenom ii's are discontinued 🙁
