And a q 6600 for like 25$

JUST

I dont think my mobo supports quad core

.. It should?

man, i was gonna say

well if the sockets are the same, there's no real reason why it shouldn't support the quad core processor

I mean, I guess the evga x58 mobo I got didn't technically support the x5600 xeons because of how they wired the qpi.

But all those old mobos had workarounds.

i've got the first fm2 motherboard msi made

oc genie is actually kind of comfy

@Azure.EXE so you mean I can stil buy a q6600?

well yeah

lga775

Or a xeon equivalent.

yeah

You could even do the mod to put an lga 771 xeon on your motherboard.

if you're gaymen, though

xeons aren't the best for it

oh, can you?

Which chink site is good for buying CPUs?

Don't bull shit him with that. Xeons are just as capable as their consumer counterparts.

i wasn't

i mean, you're right

just gotta be careful and stuff

The only standing argument of not using a xeon is cost. But when you go with older tech, the xeons are usually cheaper.

yeah

Is it actually good to buy CPUs from China?

well

idk

probably not

Ebay

i imagine its very easy to send cheap ones instead

hi wrywry

ebay is generally the best place for that kind of shit

I got an lga 2011 ES from Japan. Only to find out it wasn't overclockable, now it sits in a box doing nothing after I got my hands on a cheap 1650 v2.

hey ;)

@Azure.EXE I've thought about the LGA771 mod. I was thinking of getting Xeon x5460 or Q6600

hmm

@Azure.EXE also my mobo is some random south american brand. Literally no bios update after 2009

so im concerned
