will it work on a asus m3n72-d motherboard

[aussie114]

@aeroaa2 your motherboard has a AM2+ socket so yes it will work.

[1ben1245]

i just got one, popped it in an M2N-E SLI AM2 socket and it kicks like a mule running at 3.5 right now 8D

do you recommend me getting the AMD Phenom 2 x4 3.6ghz BE? I need a quick response for I'm upgrading my computer and want to know, feel free to speak your mind. It sounds fast but someone tell me if it's all it is cracked up to be. Note: My motherboard is compatible with it.

I have the same exact motherboard and processor. What is the voltage setting that you put on your cpu to overclock it that high?

[CarbonSteel93]

dont use software overclock... you noob.

Question, I have an HP m8200n Pavillion that has an AMD dual core 6000+ @ 3.0 ghz CPU and the motherboard has a AM2 socket. Now I heard that it might be possible to put the 940 @ 3.0 ghz (which is AM2+ processor) and it would work. Is this possible and would I see any improvements?
