What i need to know is about the CPU. my mobo is compatible with he core2quad so im going to get the QF6700 because i found it refurbished and tested for $50. i need to know if i would need to do anything special besides adding new thermal past. i know when i did it to a different computer i had to mess with the bios. Please help before i spend money :) thank you!
