It will not. It supports the 1156 package. You can take the:

i7 860
i7 860s
i7 870
i7 870s
i7 875K

From the i7 architecture.

Thank you asigh sir.
I hope people are more careful while posting suggestions.
Just can't imagine the tragedy of someone buying the CPU and mobo on the basis of some wrong suggestions and realising socket 1366 processor won't fit socket 1156 motherboard.

sorry mate, but they seem more expensive when compared to others , but have not seen them recently, maybe I should :)

yup, i totally agree, VAIO lappys a few months back (to be very honest with u) say, 7-8months back, were LOW and poor on config and damn high on prices.. say a lappy of VAIO costed like 67-69K when the same config lappy of DELL or even HP for tat matter costed way low like Rs. 52-56K... :)

i agree. no doubt...

but by the launch of this E Series (from March 10th, 2010) they hv revamped their pricing to config ratio :)

woo ho ho... congratulations on ur purchase..btw wich color did u opt for..???

there's scratchguard available for ur lappy screen so u can purchase that, it will be costing u Rs.700/- i suppose...

for the upper top lid.. ppl use transparencies, but i wud NOT recommend it, as it attracts more dust as the film fails to stick to the body of the lappy overtime.. :)

and yes, plz post ur pic here for the lappy... :)
