the pc would be in a black screen state if the cpu isn't recognizable by the mobo , so you would have to update it

I really don't care about the graphics so I cut the 8400 out and added a 640Gb hard drive with double the cache of that one.
But I like the processor and the motherboard 08-05-2009, 07:53 AM

I really don't plan to do any gaming...ok maybe dolphin but....
I can deal with it. I would rather have a big hard drive with a good amount of cache 08-05-2009, 08:14 AM
