Will my motherboard support a Q8400?

I purchased a HP Pavilion Media Center m8724f last year and now I want to upgrade my CPU. In the computer is a Asus IPIBL-LB (Benicia-GL8E). Right now I can't afford another motherboard that's why I wanted to know if a Q8400 would work with my stock motherboard. On the specifications it says
Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:
Intel Core 2 Quad (Y) Q9xxxx
Intel Core 2 Duo (W) E8xxx
Intel Core 2 Quad (K) up to Q6600
Core 2 Duo E6x00 (C) up to E6700
Core 2 Duo E4x00 (C) up to E4400
I don't see why it wouldn't support a Q8400 if it supports the Q9xxx series. Plus I tried looking on the Asus website to get some support but could not find the motherboard.

xPHANtastic, yes, it seems to make sense that if the Q9xxx will fit into the slot that a Q8400 should fit.  However, if it is not listed in the specs, this means that HP does not support it.  Why? ---I don't know.  Possibly because they want to limit the number of CPU's they have to troubleshoot.  Since both CPU's are made for the same slot, you could give it a try.  You would be on your own, of course.  Be certain to check the wattage of whichever CPU you choose.

  • Will my motherboard support a 45W processor.

    i have a hm77 motherboard and i have a 35w processor. i want to upgrade to a i7 processor.  i looked into service manual and found a 45w i7 processor.  will my motherboard  682175-001 support it. or will i have to buy a 682174-001 motherboard?

    You have an i5-3210m processor and only the Intel HD4000 graphics, at least according to this: Your specs  You have this motherboard: For use only on computer models equipped with the Intel UM77 chipset, a 35- W processor, a graphics subsystem with UMA video memory, and the Windows 8 Standard operating system 682177-501 So I stand corrected. The compatibility of processors on your motherboard is determined by the power draw not dual vs. quad. Since your i5-3210m is a 35w processor you can only install a different 35w processor that is listed in the Manual. That would include this one: Intel Quad Core i7-3632QM 2.20-GHz processor (SC turbo up to 3.20-GHz; 1600- MHz FSB, 6.0-MB L3 cache, 35 W) 701658-001 But not any of the 45w processors. Not the i7-3720qm. Sorry the Manual means what it says.  What do you think is going to happen if you install one of these i7 processors? You might be surprised that it will only make the computer a little bit faster and will not improve gaming much, if at all if that is what you are trying to do. 

  • Hey guys, will this motherboard support the new 45nm C2D?

    This is the board i'm looking to get for my new CPU and future SLI:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130081
    The MSI website says that "After 1.5" the mobo will work with the 45nms up to the 8200, I assume that even the 8300-8400s will work since they're just a increase in operating frequency. I just want to be extra sure. Btw, even without the bios update, will I be able to boot into Windows so I can download the bios first? I do not have a floppy drive to flash from.

    to answer your question, it would really need somebody have the board and the cpu to test out then only can tell you whether it works or not.
    however, do know that this board only support Wolfdale, but not Yorkfield quad core CPU, due to chipset limitation.

  • [Motherboard] MSI Motherboard supported NVMe device. 3X Faster

     [Motherboard] MSI Motherboard supported NVMe device. Comes Testing of X99S GAMING 7 and Intel P3700
    Here is third party news, please check PVEVA review as below
    ------------------------resource:http://bbs.pceva.com.cn/thread-113902-1-1.html------
    I heard that MSI has updated BOIS recently. From now on, all the 9 Series motherboards support NVMe device. As a result, I borrowed a NVMe SSD Intel DC P3700 400GB from MSI and tested it
    Intel DC P3700 have equipped with PCIe 3.0 x4 slot,capacity from 400GB to 2TB,what I borrowed is 400GB version just looks like normal PCIe SSD.
    Why the SSD uses PCIe?
    SATA 6Gb/s is fulfilled with traditional Hard Disk, but the speed is far from the SSD. With the PCIe, it helps to increase and extend the connection function. And help to improve the performance.。
    AHCI compare to NVMe
    While Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) interface has the benefit of legacy software compatibility, it does not deliver optimal performance when a SSD is connected via PCI Express bus. NVMe has been designed from the ground up, capitalizing on the low latency and parallelism of PCI Express SSDs, and fulfilling the parallelism of contemporary CPUs, platforms and applications. NVMe brings various performance improvements is the reason why it was burned
     The NVM Express, Inc. is directed by a thirteen-member board of directors selected by the promoter group, which includes Avago Technologies, Cisco, Dell, EMC, Intel, NetApp, Oracle etc. and develop by around eighty companies.
    NVM Express, NVMe, or Non-Volatile Memory Host Controller Interface Specification (NVMHCI), is a specification for accessing solid-state drives (SSDs) attached through the PCI Express (PCIe) bus.
    The biggest advantage of NVMe is the lowest latency. Because of streamlined storage stack method, NVMe can command without registers. However, each command of AHCI needs four unbuffered registers and it will cause 2.5 μs data latency.
    The other important revolution of NVMe is supporting more queues and this technology can enhance Muti-Core of CPU’s performance; the IOPS will not be influenced by single-core of CPU.
    Enterprise market will be huge benefits from NVMe. NVMe technology could reduce the HD loading and extend the battery life indirectly.
    In conclusion, PCIe hardware interface brings a high-bandwidth (sustained R/W performance), thank for native PCIe controller, it reduces latency controller (R/W performance under low QD upgrade, if it is directly connected to the CPU PCIe lanes , the performance is more obvious when the CPU overclocked). Also, NVMe software interface software is reduced latency of software.(random R/W performance of multi-core CPU under high QD)
    Let’s comes to the actual testing. To avoid decrease the Link Speed of graphic card, we put P3700 at second PCIe slot.X99S Gaming 7 supported the NVMe from the BIOS version 17.6 last year.
    Test basic:
    CPU:Intel Core i7-5960X
    Motherboard:MSI X99S GAMING 7
    Memory:Avexir DDR4-2400 4GBx4
    Graphics card:MSI GTX 660 TwinFrozr
    HD:
    Plextor PX-128M2P(system)
    Intel DC P3700 400GB(Test 1)
    Plextor PX-G512M6e(Test 2)
    Power supply:SilverStone SX-600G
    Cooler:Noctua NH-D14
    OS:Windows 8.1 Update 3
    The driver from intel official website is much more compatibility than the NVMe driver original from Win 8.1.
    Download link : https://downloadcenter.intel.com ... =3810&DwnldID=23929
    During the testing, we need to do security eraser several times, therefore; we need to download the Intel Data Center.
    Download link : https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23931
    Device manager of P3700 NVMe device in Windows 8.1
    SMART information should be checked from Intel Data Center. CrystalDiskInfo can’t read
    Wear Leveling:
    The following is benchmark test. ASSSD Benchmark and CrystalDiskMark software cannot push SSD performance to extreme level, so we use TxBench to test the performance of 32GB data transmission. TxBench in Win8.1 with native driver, sequential read is up to 1375MB/s and write is 1072MB/s. In 4K single QD test, there is not big difference between SATA3.0 and PCIe. In other side, the performance of 4K QD32 test, SATA3.0 is 50% better than PCIe.
    After installing NVMe driver, the performance of sequential R/W is dramatically improvement. Especially in read function, the performance is directly double to 2800MB/s, achieving the highest level we never saw. It’s the real performance of this SSD.
    As I mentioned before, native PCIe controller could decrease the latency of SDD. The R/W performance increase after CPU overclock to 4G as well.
    Compare to PCIE 2.0 x2 AHCI by Plextor PX-G512M6e
    overall review:
    Conclusion:
    I just introduce the overview of VVMe technology and the Intel P7300 basic performance. We found out that the advantages of NVMe comparing to the AHCI, it will be more and more common in the future.
    MSI 9 series motherboards supported NVMe device. Although NVMe is not popular, MSI keep the scalability of the motherboards. In the next article, we will test P3700 under business environment to see the performance and advantage.

  • Is it true that After March 30, 2015, AOL will no longer support your ability to sign in to the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store or did I just receive a phishing email?

    I just received the following email.....Is this legit? Makes no sense.
    Dear iTunes Customer,
    Our records indicate that you have been using your AOL Username to sign in to the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store.
    After March 30, 2015, AOL will no longer support your ability to sign in to the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. In order to continue using store features, including the ability to access your previously purchased content, you must transition from signing in with your AOL Username to signing in with an Apple ID.
    To make this transition, simply sign in once more with your AOL Username to iTunes on your Mac or PC. You will automatically be taken through a few short steps to complete the process.
    When the process is complete, your new Apple ID will allow you to continue to purchase and download music, movies, TV shows, apps, books, and more. Additionally, your Apple ID will allow you to access other Apple services, such as iCloud and the Apple Online Store.
    This transition does not affect any AOL services you may be using with your AOL Username.
    AOL Usernames which have not been transitioned to Apple ID will permanently lose access to the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store after March 30, 2015. Apple will be unable to provide support for AOL Usernames which are not transitioned by this date.
    To learn more about this transition, visit support.apple.com/kb/HT204268.
    Regards,
    The iTunes Store team

    The link that appears in the copy in the OP does not go to an Apple site, it is something to the effect of newitunes.com, whereas the text tells you it is an Apple support document.
    However, if you take the text of the support document listed, I put it in my browser and it does lead to a legit Apple Support document about coverting. Convert your AOL Username to an Apple ID - Apple Support  Seems this needs to be done by March 31, 2015, as AOL will no longer allow users to use their AOL identification.

  • I have 2 MacBooks at home that back-up to a Time Capsule.  I'd like to buy an external Thunderbolt drive at work to have as an additional back-up. Will Time-Machine support autobackups to 2 different devices?

    I have 2 MacBooks (1 Air and 1 Pro) at home that back-up to a Time Capsule.  I'd like to buy an external Thunderbolt drive at work to have as an additional back-up (so that were there to be a fire/water damage/etc) I would not lose both the computer and the backup.
    Will Time-Machine support autobackups to 2 different devices?
    I'd like for it to be able to backup to an external Thunderbolt drive attached to my thunderbolt display when I dock the MacBook Air to it.
    Does anyone know if this will occur automatically, or if I will have to manually select backup disk?
    thanks

    Yes, with Mountain Lion you can do this, but I will leave the explanation to Apple Support Communities contributor Pondini:

  • When will Podcast app support playlists?

    Anyone know if the Podcasts app will eventually support playlists since apparently the Music app will no longer support podcasts in iOS 6?  I like watching video podcasts on my iPhone at the gym (esp sine the music app on the iPad won't do video playlists), and do not want to have to keep choosing a new podcast whilst working out. 

    I should note that there is a list view in the podcast app, but for some reason it is in reverse chronological order (newest first).  This order won't work for die hard podcast listeners.  The list should be in chronological order, otherwise you end up having really old podcasts linger at the bottom of the list.
    In my original post I say my list is in reverse chron order, but I mean chronological order.
    In iTunes you can go in and change Media Kind from podcast to music as a work around.  It's not ideal though, becuase then the track gets moved out of the Podcast section in itunes and you lose feautures like keep only unplayed episodes and keep last x episodes etc.  Again one could probably write an applescript, toggling the media kind depending on play count, but seriously, what a hack.
    Please, please pretty please add playlists to the podcast app so that it uses the smart playlist from iTunes.

  • Currently running Snow Leopard with iWeb will Mountain Lion support it?

    Currently running Snow Leopard but wish to upgrade to Mountain Lian to support new iphone etc. Only problem being that I've just set up a small online page using iweb through an ftp server. will Mountain Lion support any changes that I make to my pages and can it then publish trhough the outside server?

    iWeb is supported in Mountain Lion. That said you need not upgrade to ML to support new iPhone 5. What OS are you using? All you need is iTunes 11.

  • Will mountain lion support safari 5.1?

    will mountain lion support safari 5.1?

    I've done the SMC reset as well as the PRAM and NVRAM, no dice.
    After going through Optoma's support just to make sure, it couldn't be anything with the projectors I called Apple and spoke with a Senior Advisor. Due to the fact that the VGA splitter works with my mid-2011 iMac, but not with the 2008 iMac his best guess is that the error must have something to do with the handshake protocols that allows the iMac to detect that there is something attached to the external display. Unfortunately there is no way to 'brute-force' the iMac to send video without receiving a handshake confirmation. The "Detect Displays" option only makes the iMac look for a display, but it won't send the signal without a response.
    The option at this point is to either find a different splitter and try that, or downgrade the iMac to Leopard (which requires a full wipe and re-install.
    Not the solution I had hoped to find, especially when the iMac, VGA splitter, projectors, and presentation software are individually listed as Mountain Lion compatable.

  • What will iOS5 features will not be supported on a 3GS?

    Everytime a new iOS comes out, the feature set that is supported on the iPhone 3GS gets watered down and watered down.  Yeah yeah yeah, I know I need to update my hardware, but it just isn't in the budget this month.
    Other than some of the more obvious things, like Siri and mirroring, what features in iOS5 will not be supported on the iPhone 3GS hardware?  I thought someone would put out a list, but there is nothing in the wild yet.

  • HT202157 When will Apple TV support Amazon Prime Instant Video?

    When will Apple TV support Amazon prime instant video?

    Most of the YouTube video subtitles are inserted by flash. Unfortunately, ios OS products don't support flash. If you do want to play them with subtitle, maybe you can use a video converter to help you convert YouTube videos to Apple TV. The only thing you should make sure before the conversion is that the videos that you download is bearing the subtitle, then the converted files would have the substitles as well. Hope that would help.

  • Will Radeon x800xt support  30" ACD plus a 23"ACD

    I have a dual 2ghz G5 tower with an ATI Radeon x800xt graphics card. Will the system support two Apple Cinema Displays simultaneously: a 30" plus a 23""?

    According to ATI, the X800XT has one dual link DVI port (for the 30" ACD) and one ADC port (for legacy Apple displays). If your 23" display is the newer aluminum version, you'll need an adapter.
    Hope this helps!

  • Europeans claim that Apple announced it will no longer support Aperture after December of 2014. Is there any truth to that?

    Two of my European friends who use Apple products extensively, and Aperture exclusively for their photography needs, have just told me that Apple in Europe announced they will no longer support Aperture after December 31, 2014. They are quite stressed over it. My question is simply this:"Is there any truth to this rumour, and does it effect us here in North America?" If so, is there any new product from Apple or a third-party group to replace Aperture?
    Just curious, as I would hate to give up my many huge Aperture libraries and transition to some other solution.
    Thanks,
    ....Tahunga

    Apple has announced, that it will stop the further development of Aperture. It will be updated to work with the new MacOS X version Yosemity, but then there will be no newer versions.  The new Photos.app to come with Yosemity will be the successor for both Aperture and iPhoto.
    See for example this page:   Aperture is Dead. Long Live Photos! | ApertureExpert
