IC780M-A (V1.0) on the product page says cpu up to 95 watts only but if you click on cpu compatible with this board there is a few that are 125w, My question is if i get a cpu that is 125w will my board take it? Is there a way to upgrade from IC780M-A (V1.0) to IC780M-A (V2.0)? or is v2.0 a complete other board??

can anyone help me with this before I burn something like he did
