I wanna know which is the amd using 95 watts tpd. I dont care if it is oem I just wanna to know which is the best available. My motherboard is a ecs 780gma1.1 which was designed for up to 95watts cpus. Despite in the official page theres a list stating that almost all the 125w cpu work with the mobo i don't want to take the risk.It will work but with lower performances and i dont know for how long.If it is possible provide a link with the site

thanks

I'd personally go for the 2nd cpu. Even though they are practically Athlon II's they have better overclocking ability, I believe.

I cant find it anywhere , I think the best cpu such as the 955 95 watts were only released as oem. T
1035t was the best i found priced at $150.

the best option would be a 95watt phenom 2 x4 955 for the same price of the black edition but thats impossible.
So im asking if anyone knows were to buy them

Thats the only 780GM-A V1.1 I can find on ECS website. It actually shows that you can support up to a 1090T which is a 125w TDP 6 core Phenom II.

As for the actual part to buy, what country are you in?

It states in the site that the mobo was built for 95 tdp and i cant find no one on the internet with proof that a 125w cpu works without problems for 1 year for example.

Im in Uruguay but im buying some hardware in a couple of weeks in either NY or FL
 


I would rely on the mobo manufatures website more than other people.

I see what you mean about the "supports only 95w TDP CPUs" part but am not sure why they would show that it supports a 125w TDP CPU.

Dont forget there was a 1090T 95W released only to system integrators Like HP/Dell...
