| Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1, LinuxMint 9 LTS x64, Debian 6, Ubuntu 10.04 LTS x64 | Hi, Not neccessarily - depends on exactly what processor it is. For example, my i7-860 installs on a motherboard with LGA1156. In other words, I cannot install it on a motherboard with LGA 1155. Here is more about LGA : note the supported processors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGA_775 Regards, Golden |

| | A new mobo will set you back around £100 so its not a great outlay for a total new platform. Unless you go socket lga 2011! As that's very expensive as it only came out last week lol. |
