Hi,
I know on Asus' website, they say the p5b vanilla will work with a 45nm cpu with a bios update. But I have heard there are problems because 45nm run at 1333FSB, but the E5200 uses an 800FSB, so I'm figuring it will work.
Does anyone please have any experience using a 45nm CPU on the P5B Vanilla Asus mobo and it working ok ?
Would like to make sure before I buy that cpu for a budget build I'm throwing together for a friend using my old p5b.
Thanks.
