I have a Gigabyte P965 DS3P motherboard with a C2D E6420 in it at the moment.
I also have another computer with a Q9400.
I'm hoping to swap the Q9400 into the Gigabyte motherboard, and I just want to confirm that this can be done without a problem. I don't want to go through all the trouble swapping them, potentially causing alot of problems with 2 working computers.
The reason I'm swapping is complicated, but I'd like to do it if older motherboards will take newer CPUs of the same socket...
