I wanted to ask that does Q35 support E8400, E8200, E6750, E7300? And does it support Core 2 Quads. And please don't suggest to upgrade I don't have the budget and I need a computer to work. Also would you guys be kind enough to provide me the wattage requirements for these processors as I also have to put HD 6670 and I only have 280W on +12V with 16A max. Thanks.

Yes it supports quad cores. It's better to have a 65watt processor like dual-core E5200, core2duo E8400, or quad core Q9550s. But I am currently using Q9550 (without S) which has power rating of 95watts. And it's working fine. But don't go higher than 95 watts in processor. I am also using Saphire HD 7750 1GB GDDR5 graphics card and its also working fine. I have the same 280W PS. Intel Q35 can have upto 8GB of RAM. I think you have the same Lenovo Thinkcentre desktop PC like mine. Hope you have got your answer. Have a good day.
