Hello!
As the the heading suggests, I have read people using higher TDP processors on motherboards with lower TDP, like using i7 65W on motherboard supporting 45W which causes throttling but it works.
But my question is opposite of this. Can we use Processor having 35W TDP on a motherboard having TDP of 45W ?
Please help me with some answers:
Q1.) Will it cause any issues to Processor or will it run normally (and at full capacity) ?
Q2.) The chip wont get burnt/crash due to higher TDP input from processor right ?
Q3). Also, can it run at its full capacity and still register lower temps than the previous processor having 45W TDP ?
Thinking of changing processor but want to be sure so that buying a new chip wont go in vain.
