its the Athlon II X4 630 ADX630WFK42GI, so yes, 95 tdp.

not to second guess you, as I'm not sure, but is a re-install a must? Because that really sucks. Not hard, just time consuming. No other choices??? Sorry to ask, but this is the 2nd pc I have build, and the comment about bridge is above me.

Thanks for your help, it is much appreciated.

Great, thanks. I will just give it a try, like you said, can't hurt. Thanks again for the help.

I will let you know how it goes. I will probably just change the mb out, just to be safe. But I did watch cpu temps all day yesterday, the highest it got was during a full virus scan (which I did to check temps), it hit 43c. Normal temps were in the33-35c range.

This is funny, i bought the same kit from tigerdirect. They never sent me a email about the incompatability issue, they just sent me the Biostar mobo. I used the Zotac mobo for a month before i switched out to the Biostar and never had any problems what so ever and i was even using a Sparkle GTX 460 vid card that draws alot of power. I also didnt have to reinstall windows 7. I just repaired the files and everything worked fine, i was up and running in about 10 min after the mobo was installed. I'm trying to figure out how to overclock this mobo and cpu now!!!! I have never overclocked before so this should be interesting If anyone knows anything about overclocking this mobo and cpu please let me know, i have no clue what im doing , lol!!!!!
