For my boss I got her this setup because her old x2 5000 went bad and we decided this would be the best bet. Newegg sold this mobo and cpu together as a bundle so I figured they would be compatible.
Everything seemed to go fine on installatiton until I realized that the cpu is only running at 800mhz...it should be at 3.4 for a starting point.
I installed the newest bios, using a 550w power supply. And no matter what I do this thing will not post with the stock settings.
Any suggestions? I am thinking about RMAing the board and chip both because I have no way of diagnosising what the true problem is because all of my builds are intel.
