omega939 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Hello Guru's,Due to my eagerness to try an unlock processor, I purchased an Intel 2920XM and will be receiving the processor today. I cant find it on msi website the compatible processors for my NB other than Ivy Bridge. All I know is that both SB and IB uses the same socket type.Will a Sandy Bridge be compatible with my unit (with an unlock bios)?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Consider yourself lucky, my 2920XM doesn't work in my P370. If the BIOS settings have an effect, I can't see why it would be a problem. Most people I know prefer overclocking from the BIOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
