    I was wondering if my new computer will be able to handle this new processor (QX9300). The part # of the heat sink I need to get is 512184-001. I am wondering if my mobo can handle this? I heard some talk that some mobo's can't handle it (processor). Can you check my specs so that you can verify whether or not the QX9300 + the heatsink in my brand new laptop will work? Thanks.
