socket lga 775 not enough
i know socket lga775 supports P4, but when i go to market and try to
purchased Intel motherboard dg31pr so i could place P4 on it, they say that this motherboard does not support P4. Why is it so? What else a motherboard having lga775 socket needs to support P4? I assume that if a motherboard have a supported socket for a processor that processor can be placed/run on that motherboard, isn't it? Farhan |

Farhan Not all P4's plug into socket 775 boards, there are many that use the socket 478 and some that use the socket 423 so you need to know exactly what type of P4 you have. You can pick you P4 here http://ark.intel.com/ProductCollecti...x?familyId=581 click on it and find out what type socket you need. |

I would imagine it's due to product name, instead of looking for p4 check
this list of supported cpu's for your MB. http://processormatch.intel.com/Comp...ardName=DG31PR "Farhan" wrote: i know socket lga775 supports P4, but when i go to market and try to purchased Intel motherboard dg31pr so i could place P4 on it, they say that this motherboard does not support P4.

Farhan Sometimes Intel is sneaky, and doesn't list support for stuff they aren't currently selling. Asus tries to support a wider range of processors in their motherboards. But it could just as easily be an issue, like what VRM/VRD spec for Vcore the thing uses. Why not use the page that "sgopus" posted, and use its "Find boards that will work with my processor" function ? http://processormatch.intel.com/CompDB/ Asus offers a similar page, where you can enter the details of the processor type, and get a list of compatible motherboards. ( Use "Search CPU using" menu, then select "CPU". ) http://support.asus.com.tw/cpusuppor...Language=en-us Or, you could go looking on the Asrock site, which hosts some of the weirder design choices in motherboards. For example, I use this one, which is pretty cheap. I run a Core2 in it, but it also accepts a lot of older stuff. They'll continue making these, until their supply of VIA chipsets runs out. http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.as...CoreDual-SATA2 http://www.asrock.com/mb/cpu.asp?Mod...al-SATA2&s=775 If you had mentioned the exact details of the processor, it would have made picking an example easier. And perhaps digging up some VRM/VRD info. Paul |
