I'm looking to upgrade my processor to a core 2 duo. I currently have the Intel D955XBK Motherboard. If you check Intel's website it states that core 2 duos are not supported by the motherboard. I am looking to get a new motherboard in order to upgrade. My one concern is if the RAM I have now will be compatible with the MOBO that I am looking at.
Here is the Motherboard (Open to better suggestions, need to keep it relatively cheap): Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3R LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail
I have two different types of Memory right now...here they are:
OCZ Technology | Products | Memory | OCZ DDR2 PC2-5400 Gold Dual Channel *EOL
Newegg.com - Kingston 512MB (2 x 256MB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail
I need to know if they will be compatible with that board...or if not should I upgrade memory or just pick a different board.
I know this seems like a simple question....my one real weakness is memory compatibility, so I'm just looking for some help to be sure.
