I was planning to buy the Pentium Dual-Core E6500 because, well it's much better than my crummy Core 2 Duo E4300 (1.8 ghz). I want to know if the motherboard is compatible with the processor. My motherboard series is in the 9xx. I heard that some processors (especially some Core 2's) work ONLY on the 3 series.
I rather not overclock and buy a new motherboard because my case is uATX, not only that, I do not want to spend money on new boards overclocking until I buy a new computer. I want the MAX benefits on my case and motherboard, not a new case and motherboard (even though I can get an ATX case for cheap price).
