Hi guys,

I wanted to know if I wanted to replace a motherboard with a one with similar specs (such as socket, cpu support, ram support etc), will it matter if the chipset is different?

Also in general, chipset and cpu support. for e.g. if a mobo specs say "supports socket LGA775 and Core 2 Duo etc", does that mean that it supports any core 2 duo cpu?

Just a little confusion in my head, if someone can clear it up.
Thanks
 
Solution
The important is the socket. If you have all the parts for socket 775 then buy a socket 775 motherboard and all will be fine.
