So my friend has HP Pavilion a6355.uk pc and he menaged to demage his cpu, and now he needs a new one, i'd like to get him athlon 250 but i'm not sure if his mobo will accept it. HP site doesn't provide any bios updates for that mobo (asus m2n68-la), my question is if i'll be able to update that mobo with asus bios and if i it wont demage mobo, cause i know that HP has modified bios to meet theyr needs.
or maybe if i would install that 250 it would work straight away?
Infor from HP site about the mobo:
* Socket: AM2+
* Supports the following processors:
o Phenom with Quad Core technology (AM2+) up to 9600 (up to 95 watt)
o Athlon 64 X2 with Dual Core technology X2 up to 5600+ (up to 89 watt)
o Athlon 64 less than 4000+
o Sempron less than 3800+
or maybe if i would install that 250 it would work straight away?
