A quick question<br />
<br />
I have an ASUS P5AD2 Premium Mobo. &nbsp;I want to know whether I can upgradeto one of the new Core 2 Duo E6700 or E6800 Conroe processors but note that the sales pitch states:<br />
<br />
&quot;Only compatible with new Intel 965 and 975X socket 775 Motherboards (Older 975 boards are not compatible)&quot;<br />
<br />
Does this mean that these new CPUs are incompatible with this particular motherboard? &nbsp;I can't seem to find reference to 965 or 975X in the ASUS manual.<br />
<br />
Thanks!

Is ASUS P5AD2-E Premium motherboard compatible with Core 2 Duo Conroe CPUs?

A desktop computer is a personal computer designed for use at a single location due to its size and power requirements, usually by one person. The most common configuration has a case that houses the power supply, motherboard, disk storage (usually one or more hard disk drives and optical disc drives); a keyboard and mouse for input; and computer monitor and printer for output. The case may be oriented horizontally and placed atop a desk or vertically and placed underneath or beside a desk.
