will this work properly ?

[Blue_Geek]

hello , I am trying to build a better PC but I'm not sure if my system will work properly . I dont care about HDD or Display Card. My problem is with Motherboard and CPU. Here is the CPU and Motherboard I want to buy. Do think it will each other .

CPU : i have two options
1 ) Pentium D 935 (3.2GHz,800MHz,4MB,LGA775) BOX
2 ) INTEL PENTIUM D 945 3.4GHz LGA775 800MHz HT 2x2MB PR DUAL CORE



Motherboard : P5B (I965P, GLAN, SATA, RAID, LGA775)
Motherboard Specification Page : Asus official site

so what make me confuse so much is 945 (on CPU )and I965P(on motherboard ) . i could not understand it . anybody can explaine it to me in detail please . in other words , will my motherboard support my CPU ? thanks in advance , please help

The 945 on the CPU is a model number and the I965 on the motherboard is the chipset model. That board will support either of the CPUs you posted.

will my mother support my CPU?

I don't know if your 'mother' will support your CPU or not....

You do realize that the INTEL PENTIUM D 945 is the first generation (half-baked) dual core processor from Intel and the newer generation Dual core as much more efficient and also run a lot cooler so with either one of those CPUs (should you decided to go ahead with), you need to make sure you properly cover the CPU with Thermal greasing and also with an approved fan. Those CPUs will run hot and possibly overheat much easier than newer generation Intel CPUs.

I have the Intel version (DG965) of the same motherboard you wish to buy with an E6600 Core 2 Duo (2.4GHz) processor. You can get the processor for about $220 or so; you could also go for a E6700 Core 2 Duo (2.6GHz) for around $300. Either of those chips will smoke the P4 chips you want to buy......
