(ASUS P5VDC-X), works with Intel CPU C2D E6600 ?

[enigma0264]

Hello and good afternoon! How can help me?

I have an old Motherboard from Asus (P5VDC-X). My brother gives me a Gift a "new" CPU from Intel. A C2D E6600 with 2,4 Ghz. Does this works with the P5VDC-X? On the Homepage from ASUS was a negativ answer. Sorry, my english ist not so good! Thank you for your help.

No. The board chipset is too old. I would sell your old board or sell any cpu with it as a combo. You'll need a board with one of the following chipsets to run the e6600 with ddr2: 965, g31, p35, p45.
