I have the latest official bios as listed here

http://www.abit.com.tw/page/en/download/download_bios_detail.php?pFILE_TYPE=Bios&pMAIN_TYPE=Motherboard&pTITLE_ON_SCREEN=IP35&pSOCKET_TYPE=LGA775

and my mainboard cpu support list is here

http://www.abit.com.tw/cpu-support-list/mb/intel_p35_ip35.htm

When the abit forums where still open i remember that the e8400 wasn't completely compatible with my mainboard.

The temperatures for example where completely wrong, although some users reported that the e8400 working perfectly.

I was wondering if any user here has the same maiboard as me and if he experienced any problems with e8400.

Also in the cpu support list i linked i see a e8400 C0 and a e8400 E0.

What's the difference, can i see that in the package of the cpu?

Stepping. And no.

You will be fine. Your motherboard using socket LGA775 and is therefore fully compatible with any core 2 cpu.
