The chipset doesn't support Core2Duos.
It supports Pentium 4 and Celeron D's. I'm not even sure if it would be compatible with a dual core.
Sorry.

This is possibly one of the fastest CPUs you can get with your motherboard.

That is pretty stuffty. At least get a Pentium Dual core.

EDIT: Oh, nevermind. I didn't take the chipset into consideration. Doing some research.

AMDs use totally different sockets, chipsets and other stuffs.

Yeah.

Also, Madmitten, you need a bigger hard drive btw.
