I would check the motherboard web site to see if the CPU is supported. If it is, then I would look at the BIOS updates for that motherboard and see if any were to support that CPU I have no idea.

Since prices have dropped so much, I would like to install an Opteron 180 dual core in it. They are both socket 939, but as you know the Opteron is a dual core processor. Will I have to update my bios before doing so? Howdy,

It's amazing that all these months later, your article is still saving people. I've been fighting this computer with various issues, mostly related to the overheating caused by overclocking. Twelve months later, I've finally got a working computer. Actually I have 2 working computers because I bought so many parts trying to solve the overheating problem. I bought this AMD 3500+ on ebay, hoping the slower speed would solve the problem, and while waiting for it to arrive, I discovered the overclocking settings and by dialing down my cpu speed, both motherboards are now working great, thanks to you helping me with the 3500+ cpu bios problem. Anyway. Thanks for the post. I wish you well. Hey Friend,
