Thread: Can the M2-ATX handle the Energy Efficient 65W Athlon64 X2 Dual Core 4400+ CPU?

I've seen alot of people mention this cpu in the forums but i havent been able to find any post of people actually using this cpu. either im not doing a good job of using the search button or this cpu isn;t really that popular.

Frys has a pretty good deal on an Energy Efficient 65W Athlon64 X2 Dual Core 4400+ and motherboard for around $98.99 and i was wondering if the M2-ATX will be able to power this???

I realize i don't need this much power to play a few mp3s but the main reason i want to use something like this is because i can actually goto the store and buy it and if anything was wrong with it i can return it and not have to deal with shipping. also the pricing is pretty attractive

I recently bought the Turion MT-37 2.0ghz 25watt CPU + a compatible mobo but it turns out somethign was wrong with them and i ended up returning the motherboard 4 times to exhange for a new ones and finally decided to screw the Turion and return it to newegg since it was too much trouble. i don;t know about you but calling newegg everyday to harrass them into accepting a return and driving to UPS 4 times a weeks isn't my idea of fun. Id rather just go to frys and not have to deal with all the online and calling customer service crap.
