jonnyB3 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Hi, I have tried other forums but they do not give me access to add a new thread :doh: So i was wondering if someone could tell me if this motherboard will support a core 2 quad q6600? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-011-AK&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat= It sais it does but i dont know what it means by 'Kentsfield' Moderator doesnt like it :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Sqn_Fudd Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I really doubt it.... popular 965/975/P35 boards don't support the GO without BIOS updates but I doubt ASROCK is writing BIOSes for this board. It's possible though... especially if ASROCK is serious about keeping AGP alive. ASROCK have forums? http://3sqn.com/forum/ Here's to 1.13 -- > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0488djMDBU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiskeyRomeo Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 'Kentsfield'Kentsfield is the Intel code name for the Core 2 Quad CPUs. So Kentsfield = C2Q. So it looks like that Asrock 4Core Dual mb will support a C2Q 6600. If you're trying to keep your DDR RAM and AGP video card this might work for you. Google turned up some reviews of the board - 1 using Q6700 and 1 E6300: http://www.ocworkbench.com/2006/asrock/4coredual-vsta/g1.htm http://www.pro-clockers.com/review.php?id=207&page=1 It seems a little bit like dropping a Porsche engine into a Mini body. You can do it - but are you sure its a good idea? Be sure to carefully check ALL the items you want to move over to make sure they will work together.
