Looking at a mb and chip (intel i3) combination. The mb cpu compatibility list doesn't list the specific cpu but does have others from the same type so is obviously technically capable of running the chip.
Will a mb automatically pick up the settings for a cpu even if it isn't on the list or does it need the settings specifically written into its bios code to recognise it.
As I said the mb does list other similar spec/era chips so I cannot see a reason why it shouldn't run.
