If I upgrade Since my "loud sound dibocle," I've been thinking a lot about upgrading my mobo to an Intel compatible with a new proc like an E6600. I'm not worried about moving all my parts around in my case, only if I have to fool with the BIOS. Would I have to do this, or would it just recognize the new parts and boot up like normal? |
Well whatever Mobo you buy should come with a CD, if you install the CD correctly then you shouldn't have to mess with anything in the BIOS. |
That's great news. BTW, when would I ever HAVE TO open up the BIOS and tweak things? I don't ever OC so that's out. |
You may have to tweak the BIOS for stuff like boot sequence and various other things, but that would usually be a one time occurrence. |
But why E6600 when E6750 is cheaper and faster |

I still cannot figure out why the E6750 and the E6850 are so relatively inexpensive as compared to the other E series processor. They have the exact same caches, same core frequency, and a faster FSB speed. It's still a good deal, but has anyone discovered why they are less? |
Chances are that they're either significantly cheaper to make, or Intel dropped the prices to make their new products more competitive against AMD's increasingly cheaper products. |
You mean like the two hundred and sixty dollar single die quad? |
