CPU I want to buy

The X2 6000 isn't on the supported list but why is there a differnt 125W proccessor?
Do you guys think this will work anyway?

Right now the cpu is in hot deal mode ($40 off coupon) so I'd need to order soon.

It probably will. If you haven't ordered yet, newegg has the 5000 black edition for $67 after a special code, available to persons on their mailing list. It's listed at slickdeals.net. They overclock well, and run at 65 watts.

Being that this dropped to $75 I went with it.


I agree with the probably, just hoping the odds are on my side. Might need to get the newest bios, hope not...
