I don't want to get a pentium d. They are terrible. I can get a core 2 duo but i don't to risk it not working. Mobo is Intel 945GTP and supports the low-end C2D's and some higher ones with a BIOS upgrade, apparently.
yeah me too, but i have seen threads on other sites saying that the 945 chipsets don't work with C2D cause for voltage regulation or something. but apparently all 965 and some 975 boards work with C2D...why did i have to buy a dud board....lol
