Occasionally a motherboard will boot with an unsupported CPU (higher FSB), but I would be very cautious as this is usually unstable
Thanks a lot guys.. I've upgraded to E4600 2.4GHZ from E2160 1.8GHZ and I can feel a difference especially in games (The 2MB L2 CACHE made the difference)..
Some guys told me that I can overclock easily to 3-4GHZ.. Does my mobo support that? And will it work with the stock cooler?

You would have to check your bios options to determine if you can overclock, Lenovo might have locked those options. Can you increase the front side bus and voltages, or is there a "burn in" option? An aftermarket cooler is recommended if you want to overclock due to the higher temperatures it causes.
