I have a Maximus Formula Motherboard and it says it "Supports Intel Next-Generation 45nm Multi-Core CPUs". Does it matter if I where to put a 65nm processor in the board? What is the difference between the 2 anyway?

45nm consume less power, produce less heat, thus increase overclock limit. And yes, the board will accept 65nm cpu.
