q6600 on Asus P5VDC-TVM/S

ok, just to be the first to be curious, but why would you even want that board? its a bog standard rubbish board in my opinion, i picked up a foxconn digitallife ela for around the 70 quid mark that would walk all over that motherboard, might be worth investing in one of those if you can find one on the bay or something.
 
Yeah it's pretty poor. not bad for a 20 spot. Just a quick lesson in Asus boards. If it doesn't say Pro, turbo, premium, Deluxe or at lease SE, then it's probably not worth buying. I sold a P5ql pro (a decent board) for around £30 about a yr ago. a tenner more can often buy you a lot more board. It's not like it's going to kill your family and kidknap your dog though. So in that vien, it's not a bad board. It does it's job and nothing more.
 
I would'nt have touched that board with a bargepole. Terrible Via chipsets for a start. £20 is'nt even a good deal. You can get far better boards for a little more.

A quick search says no. You are stuck with the original Pentium 4's, Pentium D's and original Celerons.
 
if bought from an online shop, then return it under the distance sales of good act (i think, its that act, but you can return it with 7 days as long as you inform them)
if bought at an auction site, then you are stuck with it or try to resell it
in future try to get a p35 or p45 chipset motherboard
