Thanks. This is a joke, right? What do you think the numbers 754 and 940 represent? (Hint: # of pins). Try using Google. |

You'll never actually be able to buy the top line kit after a month of research. It's really impossible.. by the time you have EVERY answer that you want then it's time to ask more questions.. JUST GO BUY SOMETHING. He would love to go out and buy a new computer but he is not allowed to cross the street on his own. |

According to this article 939pin CPU will fit into the 940 socket, no it won't boot, but it will fit, unfortunately for people like the one who started this thread. Bytheway, NO, YOU CAN'T PLUG 754 PIN CPU INTO SOCKET 940 MOBO! 940pin cpu is for Socket 940 939pin cpu is for Socket 939 754pin cpu is for Socket 754 478pin cpu is for Socket 478 462pin cpu is for Socket A etc. and don't try anything stupid "Canus_Lupis" wrote in message ...
