[amruth kiran]

hey guys!!
i am on the look out for a good proccesor for my old " INTEL D945GCNL DESKTOP BOARD"
Is the *www.flipkart.com/intel-3-ghz-lga-7...6DZF&ref=108d675f-0186-434e-8e55-69d43d190ef4 enough.....
thats INTEL E5700.. is it even compatible??
also which chipset does my mobo support?? the LGA 775 OR the intel 945 chipset?
CHEERS!!

 

[sumonpathak]

its 945 chip-set...
E5700 is not compatible unfortunately...

 

[amruth kiran]

damn.... any good proccesor with the 945 chipset??

hey actually i just checked the desktop board box. the backside had the full description along wit the picture. my board IS LGA 775!!
its written " for Intel core 2 duo, dual core, pentium , celeron ..." etc range of proccy's!!
so i might go with the e5700 for 5k.
what say??

I've got my old CPU packed and stored -- E2160 @1.8GHz. PM me for details if you want to buy it.

This is not a buy/sell thread where you can make self promotion about the products you want to sell.

i have the exact cpu. Its was good years ago. So no thanks. also where can i get the cpu mentioned by me anywhere cheaper?

local shops may be .. 945/965 mobos needs a bios update to support 45nm cpus.

Anyway, Not sure if this will work for you or not but found these links :

Instead of getting E5700 for 5k, getting Pentium Dual for 3.2k with a H61 board for 2.6k makes more sense. So, for 5.8k you get a much better processor. Just add a 4GB DDR3 RAM for 1.2k and nothing more. Sell of your current motherboard and RAM, say for 1.7k-2k.

okay maybe.... a g630 + asrock h61m- hvgs about 6200rs might be enough??
i have 2 gb ram ( transcend) and nvidia 9400gt.
played most games till 35 fps. not bad.

^^ Good low cost combo.
But I'm not sure about the fps part as I've not used G630 by myself.

the igpu of Pentium G630 is better than a discrete 9400GT.

its not the g630 i was talking about, its my current 1.8 ghz dual core.
and the games i played at the least settings.
