ok ibought via p890 chipset mobo about 2 years ago, and i had e2200 on it and word fine, but last year i upgarsded cpu to e7200 without knowing the mobo not supporting such cpu, forunately the computer works fine with e7200 with decreased its fumction. should i sell E7200 and get e6700 for mobo's potential(it is the best cpu the mobo can support correctly), or i keep the cpu and upgade the motherboard(i hate to do it I have tons of program/apps to reinstall).. answers are very appriciated..!!!???

What do you mean decreased its function? What mobo do you have and how do you know it is/isn't compatible?

If the CPU works fine with the E7200, then it should be a compatible mobo.

You need to give us more info.

the mobo is ecs via p890t chipset only supports upto e6700, when i install e7200 boot says the board does not support 266mhz multiplier cpu and it is going to decrease clock speed and performance...so i am in the middle of deciding either i get e6700 or e7200 but i have 40 of programs install in the hard drive and probably i need to reinstall everything
