hi guys i need some help.

i have a foxconn g41mx 2.0 mobo.
i have been offered a Q6600 b3 sl9um malay
2.40ghz/8m/1066/05b (i know its the older, hotter one)

my concern is i have looked at the supported cpu list here http://www.foxconnsupport.com/cpusupportlist.aspx?type=mb&model=G41MX-K&cputype=

it says it supports the Q6600 but at 95w
but doing a quick google search the Q6600b3 is 105w

will my mobo support it as none of the cpu's listed has 105w

i know it runs hotter than a go stepping version, but i can get a good deal on it.
also i will be happy at 2.8-3.0GHz speed, so not bothered about getting more out of it

ps. out of curiosity, what are these going for used? i dont want to be ripped off lol
