HERES A QUICK QUESTION FOR ANY BUDDING HARDWARE GURU OUTHERE! MY CURRENT HARDWARE SPEC IS: Cognac Micro ATX (ATX V1.2 form factor) motherboard, TriGem, Korea Intel Socket-370 (370pin PPGA Socket) for Intel FC-PGA Celeron CPU 800MHz. Integrating on-chip Graphics controller and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH): Intel FW82810, as well as Intel I/O Controller Hub (ICH) and AC 97' Controller: I ntel FW82801 onto the motherboard eliminates the need for more expensive graphic and audio add-in cards. I WANT TO UPGARDE THE CPU TO A FASTER CELERON WITH A SOCKET 370...DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE MAX SPEED OF CPU IS THAT THIS PARTICULAR MOTHERBOARD WILL TAKE? |

well, according to the first site i posted, and it's sort of iffy, i couldn't get the exact number, but it may be able to take a 1.1ghz cpu if it's a cognac+ motherboard at the minimum, as far as if it'll take more, i'd just call trigem usa and ask. or else you can use the links at http://www.e4all.info and use their forums to ask your question. the manual i found only lists up to a 500mhz, but i think you have a newer model. |
