Will Core 2 Quad Q9650 work on M58p 7484-AHU

I have ThinkCentre M58p 7484-AHU which came with "Intel Core 2 Duo E8400" processor.
I see the following information in the detailed specifications doc:
    System Board:
        Supports Intel Core 2 Quad processor with 4MB or 6MB L2 Cache
   Processor:
        Intel Core 2 Quad processor
    Cache:
       512KB to 12MB cache, processor dependent
On another document where it lists system service parts, it lists this processor:
    Intel® Core 2 Quad Q9650 Processor 3.0GHz 1333MHz FSB 12M L2 cache
So I am bit confused.
And I am hoping this Q9650 will work even if this processor has 12M L2 cache.
Above spec says only the those Core 2 Quad processors with 4MB or 6MB L2 Cache is supported.
It didn't mention or list 12MB L2 Cache in spec. But on the Cache section of spec, it mentions "512KB to 12MB cache (processor dependent)". I am not sure if this statement makes Q9650 processor with 12M L2 cache as a supported processor. And again, the service parts documents does list Q9650 processor.
Which kind of makes me think it should be supported, but I am not certain.
Does anyone know if Q9650 processor which has 12M L2 cache should be supported?
Is there anyone who actually has this processor in their M58p system?
Please help.
Thank you.

P43 Neo3-FR + Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 freezing

Hi guys, I'm building a new comp
The specs are:
MSI P43 Neo3-FR
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400
4 x 2Gb Kingston KVR 800Mz HyperX DDR2
Coolermaster 550w PSU
Samsung Spinpoint 500Gb Hard Drive
LG DVD drive
Asus 8800GS graphics card
Windows 7 Home premium
The problem is it keeps freezing, when I try to reload the programme, when it loads to the desktop, at totally random times!!
It'll go on the internet fine then it'll freeze!
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
I've probably missed looods out

Yes I've done that and it was no different.
So I had a bit of a play with the RAM/Northbridge voltage settings, basically upping them a bit, it got a bit better i.e- it stayed on for longer 2 hours managed to download Mozilla, Avast and MSI Live update. Ran the MSI Live which said the BIOS was v1.3 and the online BIOS was v1.A0??
So closed it down last night with no probs, then tried it this morning and it froze. So I upped the aformentioned voltages and it eouldn't even boot. I tried various voltages with no joy, so I went back to what worked last night and, again, it was fine, until I tried to rate the computer in System properties. A box comes up with Running the Direct3D 9 Aero Assesment, at which point it gets about 1/20th along the bar and freezes. Re-boot it and it seems fine but try that and it goes.
These are the current figures:
MULTISPEED OC BOOSTER - DISABLED
D.O.T. CONTROL - DISABLED
INTEL C-STATE - DISABLED
ADJUST CPU FSB FREQUENCY - 200
ADJUSTED CPU Ratio - 9
ADJUSTED CPU FREQUENCY - 1800
FSB/DRAM Ratio - AUTO
CPU Voltage - Auto
DRAM Voltage - 1.848
VTT FSB Voltage - Auto
CAS -AUTO
tRCD - AUTO
tRD - AUTO
tRAS - AUTO
I downloade CPU-Z which gave me these figures for the RAM :
CAS LATENCY (CL)- 6 CLOCKS
tRCD - 6 CLOCKS
tRD - 6 CLOCKS
tRAS - 18 CLOCKS
tRFC - 52 CLOCKS
COMMAND RATIO 2T
So I take it when I was told to put the RAM timings to 6-6-6-18 its CL-tRCD-tRD-tRAS???????

I5 vs i7, dual-core vs quad, GHz, GHz, GHz -- what does it all mean?

I'm looking at the mac mini configurations, and comparing with iMac configurations. I'm trying to argue we should go the mini route. I want this to be true for a couple of reasons:
The users are doing page layout or are artists. It's really nice for them to have a BIG screen, but it would be nice to be able to get nice screens and then not replace them as frequently as we replace cpus.
Machines get "handed down" from users who need lots of cpu and memory to users who don't need that so much. Those users might not need all that screen real estate, either, so in the computer "musical chairs" it would make more sense for people to keep the monitor that fits their work needs.
Eventually machines end up running serverish tasks back here in the computer room. (We have a collection of junk back here and it's awesome how well it works. We just retired our last G3 tower a few weeks ago, and we've got lots of old G4s and G5s, too.) Cast-off minis are great for us -- just stack them up and plug them into a kvm switch. Towers are fine, too. But a bunch of 20" or 21.5" iMacs? Yikes!
But looking at the minis, they appear to be underpowered next to the iMacs. The mid-price mini can be ordered with an i7 but it's only dual core not quad. The GHz on the cpus is lower. Is there something I'm missing here? (Like stuffing memory into the machine is more important than the cpu, or that the extra cores aren't going to do any good for my users running InDesign...)
So, help me out here -- how do I justify the mini? It just doesn't seem to have quite the same horsepower as what should be an "equivalent" iMac, at least on paper.

The bottom line depends on what your most intensive
application is. For instance, Photoshop will actually
perform better on a 2.7 dualcore that a 2.0 quad core.
Most of it's operations a singlethreaded (only doing one
thing at a time). But as an example, Hanbrake, which is
a video conversion application, will run 2 to 4 times faster
on a 2.0 quad core vs. 2.7 dual core.
The 2011 Macbook Pro line uses similar processors and
there are many benchmark reports for them.
The other item is graphics rendering. If you have graphics
intensive applications that are graphics chip dependent,
then you will want to opt for the Mini with the discrete
graphics option vs. the integrated Intel option.

G31M3-L V2 and Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 freezing only on restarts

I have had the stated computer for less than a week now. The first day I had it I installed a PCI Wireless Card which caused nothing but troubles. The system would constantly freeze, always requiring a hard shutdown/restart. In the process of installing new drivers for this card my computer started freezing when I went to restart it as well(Note, I was also installing several programs and catching up on the Windows Updates, but after all the troubles with this card I used system restore to go back to before anything new was installed). It would shut down normally but once it began to boot up again it would immediately freeze at the very first screen that pops up, almost exactly like this one http://img167.imageshack.us/i/x38d19fw4.jpg/. If I manually shut it down from this frozen state and attempted to power it on again within 10 seconds it would freeze the same way once again. If I waited 15+ seconds it would start up normally.
I have since scrapped the Wireless Card and uninstalled the drivers but I am still having the issue with the restart freeze. Keep in mind I installed 3 different sets of drivers for this card in attempt to get it working, possibly they were not all removed? If I shut the computer down, wait a few seconds and turn it back on it goes normally, it only freezes when it is attempting to restart, there are no other ill side effects that I can see.
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit.
Any ideas?

Sorry about the cluttered post,s. I have figured out what my issues are with g31m3-l v2 motherboard . I have ran mem test on memory,, memory checks out OK, and runs good. The main problem was the CORE 2 QUAD Q8200 INTEL CPU M1 . The CPU caused compatibility issues with the chipset drivers. the g31 chipset drivers. According to Intel the g31 chipsets are not compatible with the Core 2 Quad q 8200 m1 CPU. I have ruined 2 new hard drives from this combination CPU and motherboard due to what i suspect incompatibility issue with the q8200 m1 and the g31 chipset located on the g31m3-L v2 motherboard. Looks like i will need to step up too at least the 35 Intel chip set controllers on future motherboards. Oh yeah i slipped my old Prescott 630 single core CPU lga 775 socket CPU in this motherboard and it works pretty darn good . One more thing, I switched OS systems to--- --- PC Linux OS 2009.1---- . AND I HAVE NO MORE BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH ISSUES. I have been working on this motherboard set up with win xp and win xp pro for about 18 days due to issues with g31 chipset [before i read specs about g31 chipset will not work ] and windows software reactivation issues due to me re loading the OS system over 17 times from system crashes . Good old microsoft froze my software license from so many installations . Thank you microsoft you -S.O.B.'S.

Request GX620 C2Q (Core 2 Quad) bios mod

Hi everyone! I just got my powerful gx620 and I love the performance.
But I was wondering if there could be a bios mod to allow core 2 quads such as q9000,q9100,qx9300. I know that there is an edition that supports the core 2 quads the msi 1651 id2 the one that uses DDR3 ram modules, I currently have the one with DDR2 modules. I know that this machine could be able to handle a C2Q processor, it has a nice and powerful heatsink and fan!, I easily OC this machine using a P9500 to 3.03ghz!!.
So PLEASE I would like to have an even more powerful machine!! , a machine with C2Q and perhaps OC options for it like processor OC, memory OC.
Im aware of the risks! but I would like to give it a try!.
Thank you MSI I love this machine, I would recommend this machine to all my friends!!.

If you look at the GX620 MSI page http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=135&cat2_no=&cat3_no=&prod_no=1529 On the top right hand corner you will see "• Intel® Core™2 Quad processor, with Intel® wireless technology" even though all of them are sold with Core 2 Duo. So that means C2Q is supported,
These 2 CPU's are included in the AVL list for the GX620 (1651) meaning they are supported by the machine :
Penryn Core 2 Quad Q9100
Penryn Core 2 Quad Q9000
MexicanSnake, are you saying that the two above do not work? If that is what you are saying, contact MSI to see if it's your machine or that a mistake needs correcting on the webpage.

Adobe Media Core CS6 has stopped working (Premiere Pro Family CS6)

I have recently upgraded my computer to better run Premiere and Encore but have now encountered the error "Adobe Media Core CS6 has stopped working". The program will then boot even after I choose either of the two options that say they should close the program. They both seem to run fine after getting past the error but I would rather not have to see it everytime and know that something is amis. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Quicktime like some other users have suggested but I think my problem may lie elsewhere. Can anyone help me out?

"Adobe Media Core CS6 has stopped working" error.

I have had Premiere Elements 11, Photoshop Elements and LR 4 installed for over a year on my Windows 7 computer. Over the last couple months, within a few minutes of turning on my computer I get an error that Adobe Media Core CS6 has stopped working. It seems like this might be related to Premiere but I have not been able to find a solution. This occurs even if I have not run any of my installed programs. Any suggestions what is causing this and how to fix it?

I had not saved the detail files earlier today (it appears they disappear on a restart), but did a shutdown/startup a short time ago and had a recurrence again. (Although two subsequent cycles did not generate the error.) I saved the files and the .xml file indicates the parent process was Elements 11 Organizer this time, not LR4.
I had been living with this problem for a while, one of the set of saved error file sets was from 5/1. I don't recall for sure if that was from the first occurrence of the error, but I decided to look for other programs installed just before that time. I see that Adobe Creative Cloud was installed the day before, 4/30. I don't recall how/why that was installed since I don't have any Cloud products. Also installed on 4/30 were three Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable files, which show installation times one minute before the Creative Cloud installation, so I assume they are part of the Cloud installation. The next most recent (before 5/1) installed program was Smith Micro Anime Studio Pro 9.5, which was installed on 4/29.
The firewall settings have not changed. I was in a chat with my ISP when the problem occurred this afternoon, but not during the latest occurrence. I don't recall any updates since 6/24. I believe the error had occurred every time I started my computer before the Firewall changes, but it seems to be more sporadic now.
I will see what else I can come up with tomorrow since it is getting late. I wanted to get this all down before I lost my thoughts.
Update 7/5:
I have more information, but still no solution.
I found this thread Adobe Media Core CS6 has stopped working related to the same error, but it had no solution. The error did not occur when I exited PS Elements or Premiere Elements as it did for that person.
I also found Adobe media core cs6 stopped working......??? and tried the steps to rebuild the Photoshop Elements editor preferences file, but no success.
I had noticed that Adobe Creative Cloud was installed the day before, so I uninstalled it. Error still occurred.
I installed a different firewall (Zone Alarm Free) and disabled Windows Defender, error still occurs.
Uninstalled Anime Studio Pro (that had been installed a couple days before, error still occurred.
I will provide more updates as I try more changes.
Update 7/20:
More things I tried:
Repaired quicktime via control panel, did not fix
Uninstalled quicktime, error did not recur
I noticed that there remained a plug-ins folder in the quicktime folder, so I renamed it.
Reinstalled quicktime from Apple site on 7/12 and the CS6 error has not recurred.
Additional info not directly related to original question, but occurred afterwards.
I don't think it is related, but a few days later started getting a small blank MFC CTxfiHlp window upon windows startup. I haven't resolved that yet, but it is related to my Creative XFi sound card.
I also noted when I reinstalled Anime Studio Pro that the readme contains a warning that 64 bit windows does not support quicktime; that I should use the 32 bit version of their software.
I installed the latest Creative sound card software, but started getting lockups. Still working on this, but the original problem seems to be solved.
The only other thing I can think of is that iTunes software had been installed, but I removed it. It is possible that caused a problem with quicktime??
Anyway, the removal of quicktime (including the Plug Ins) and re-install did resolve my problem.

Dual core or Quad Core

I know elements will run on a "Dual core or Quad Core" system, but will it use the "Dual core or Quad Core" feature

Yes, the Editor will make good use of multiple processors, while the Organizer appears to make somewhat less use of multiple processors. PSE 7 has a severe bug with respect to raw files, but that's fixed in PSE 7.

Macbook pro, dual core or quad core?

Hey guys Im getting an early college present and was wondering which Macbook I should look at. This will be my one and only computer while im in college. No photo editing or anything like that, maybe some video editing but it will be almost none. Will be used to surf the web and write documents. My question is should i get the dual core or quad core processor? Will it really matter for what i want it for? One thing I absolutely hate is lag! So the faster of the two the better.

tony477g wrote:
So if I went with the quadcore because you guys say it is faster than the 2.9 ghz dualcore. Would the difference be noticable between the 2.6 ghz and the 2.3 ghz? I noticed the 2.6 has 8 gb to the 4gb and 750gb to the 500 gb.
Well, actually, only one guy said the quad core would be faster, but it is not clear why they said that. You said you were only going to use it "to surf the web and write documents." Well, guess what. You don't need a quad-core for that. You don't need a dual-core for that. I've surfed the web and written documents on my old single-core iPhone. Those tasks are just not that demanding.
So unless there are more things you want to do that you haven't mentioned, there is just about no way it's worth paying for quad-core or a 2.6GHz processor if all you are going to do is surf the web and write documents.
The quad-core is going to speed up operations that specifically benefit from parallel processing, like intensive editing of photo/audio/video, or bulk encoding of audio and video, or specific math apps, stuff like that. And most Mac users would not benefit from choosing the 2.6GHz over the 2.3GHz because the performance of so many common uses depends not only on the CPU speed, but actually on the overall balance of CPU, RAM, and disc. In other words, if you really have a legitimate application for 2.6GHz it usually means you must also install a great deal more RAM and also an SSD to avoid creating a bottleneck that holds back the CPU. But then you would have a machine that is massively overpowered and overpriced for surfing the web and writing documents.
You could surf the web and write documents quite effectively on the least expensive MacBook that Apple sells. But since you do want to keep it throughout all of college, it is a good idea to buy something higher than the bottom of the line. For a Mac for very basic uses that should last four years, I would suggest:
13-inch MacBook Air with 256GB SSD storage and 8GB RAM
13-inch MacBook Pro with 500GB HD storage and 8GB RAM
13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display with 256GB SSD storage and 8GB RAM
(You didn't mention what your budget is)
I suggested 13-inch because it's more portable than the 15-inch but more comfortable for 4 years than an 11-inch. I chose storage sizes that would be appropriate since you said you would do some video. And I chose 8GB RAM because 4GB may not be enough for 4 years, and also because insufficient RAM is often a bigger cause of lag than CPU or disk speed.
If you have a limited amount of money, from this point on you'll need to justify why you would want a bigger screen, a faster CPU, or more cores given the two tasks you said you'd be doing most of the time. Because again, if you didn't actually need a Mac, you could write documents and surf the web on an iPad with the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover and be done for $600.

Core 2 Quad & late MacBook Pro

Hi all! Really glad to be here as an all new Mac user - got my MacBook Pro just four days ago and already I start wondering where to go from here.
See, its probably 2-4 months from here until Apple is going to introduce a quad core MacBook Pro. It also makes sense to sync this event with the introduction of Snow Leopard, whenever that will be.
So I was wondering: Would it be possible for the current line of MacBook Pro's (such as mine) to be upgraded with a Core 2 Quad CPU in, say, late 2009 / early 2010 (when prices are more reasonable)?
What do you guys think? I know, Apple is pretty restrictive about upgrading MacBook hardware.
What's more, I don't know much about the guts of the MBP, especially w/ regard to the CPU - logic board - business. Maybe if I did, I wouldn't ask this question.
So, is it technically possible? Will it be officially supported? Tell me your opinion.

Speculation on this board is a no-no so there's no point in debating when/whether apple will do a quad core laptop
Your second question is an easy one, there's no way now or in the future to upgrade a laptops cpu. What you buy is what you get, and there's not much else you can do other then upgrade the ram and HD.
