Intel C2D 6750 and Asus P5N-E SLI

[siraskalot]

Hello, This might be a nub question but.

I recently got a P5N-E SLI from a friend and I bought a 6750 the other day. It came across my mind that the bios might not be compatible with the CPU. If was to put the CPU in, would it even post or allow me to flash it with the new bios, Or would i have to purchase or borrow another processor to flash the bios.

Thanks in advance

hehe i have exact same problem i was googling the answer when i arrived here... from what i have found out we will need to flash the bios using a supported cpu, then change cpu to the 1333 cpu. lucky i have a pentium d 935 kicking about but its still gonna be a bit of mess about. good luck!
