    Hello everyone,

    Is the motherboard that ships with the t9300 the same as the board that ships with the x9000 processor?

    I currently have the t9300 and was thinking about purchasing the x9000 but wanted to know if my motherboard will cause any issue with the x9000 processor?


    Thank you everyone.

    Nope they are all the same from everything i have read to date. The one thing though i would ask is what your going to do with it ? that little bit of extra processor speed wont make much of a difference if any for the $$. You cant overclock the X9000 in the m15x since the bios is locked so im not sure if its exactly the best investment but im not one to tell people what to spend there hard earned money on :).
