Which processor to choose for Asus P5Q motherboard?

a bump

can someone give me some advice?

Thank you

No one?!
please

up

Hello again,
Do you think I need to change the motherboard or would a new CPU be sufficient?

Thank you in advance, any advice would help me a lot.

you have a very small proc lol for the GPU

a Core2Quad would be nice but they are hard to find now

otherwise get an upgrade kit from materiel.net with an i5 in it, you’ll be safe

PS: I also rarely get replies lol

Thank you very much, Sourinor,

I have another little question, on my power supply it says 230V and max 530W.
What does this mean, will I need to change the power supply and which value should I take into account (230V or 530W)?

And are there any motherboards compatible with DDR2 and DDR3 because I don't want to lose everything, as this PC is a year old.

Thanks again.

I want to talk about DDR2 and DDR3 compatibility of course.

Thank you.

There are such cards at Asrock, I believe.

It's the watts that you need to take into account (unless you're not in France, 230V is fine ^^)

the best on 775

but a slight overclock will be necessary to be comfortable in games

in 1155

270 euros less than the Q9650 but certainly more powerful

Thank you very much again, I’ll take a look at it right away.

I looked, and it's true that I can't do budgets over 200 euros.

Do you think the processor:
Intel - Processor - Core 2 Quad Q8300 (2.5GHz) BOX - 4 MB cache - Socket 775 - FSB 1333MHz - Boxed Version *F*
will allow me to boost my PC and enable me to play BF3 with:
- 4GB of RAM
- Windows XP and 7 in dual boot
- and I'm going to receive an EVGA GTX560 graphics card
- and on my power supply, I read in red "max 500w"
and a P5Q motherboard

Will there be a real difference compared to the current processor: Intel Pentium III Xeon, 2500 MHz (9.5 x 263)

Finally, are there any i5 processors in socket 775 because I haven't seen any.

Thank you.

up

thank you

the i5s are 1155 that’s all (or 1156 for the bugger lol)

if you clock the quad core to 3Ghz (should hold without tweaking the voltage too much)

I think you’ll run bf3 but not at high quality

Ok, thank you very much again, I think I need to save some money then.

I would advise you to get a Core 2 Duo or a Core 2 Quad

that will be more than enough.

But if you have a large budget, go for a Core i7 or a Core i5 (the most reliable on the market)

Sincerely
