    I've got a really good deal from a friend. He's selling me his unused Q9650 3.0GHZ for only 250$ :D

    I'm going to install it myself in my 901C. Is there anything special that i need to think about? I need a bios update, right? If so, is there anyone that could post that.

    Thanks for all help :)

    you can contact your vendor for the latest BIOS update.

    then they would email it to you
