Bosco Posted June 8, 2002 Posted June 8, 2002 As long as the board supports the chip you will be fine. http://www.motherboards.org/articlesd/how-...ides/924_4.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inu_Yasha Posted June 29, 2002 Posted June 29, 2002 ok, what if you have a large heatsink in the way (like a volcano 7+)? Then what do you do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inu_Yasha Posted July 1, 2002 Posted July 1, 2002 how? What i was planning on doing was using my stock hsf until my volcano 7+ comes back in stock. What would i need to do to switch the hsf? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

zep_54 Posted July 17, 2002 Posted July 17, 2002 before you install your cp on the mobo, its always a good idea to clean the pins with alcohol and clean the top surface up also, just liek a brand spanking new cpu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
