I was wondering if anyone has upgraded this mother board with an AMD 64 FX series. It is an HP model a1206n. The MoBo is A8AE-LE, a 939 Socket. HP says that this MoBo only accepts X2, Athlon, and Sempron's. It doesn't list FX series.
Does anyone know, specifically what would be the hurdle if any that would prevent me from upgrading to an FX series. I am hesitant to change th MoBo because I use the 2 usb ports and 9 memory card readers on the front of the computer case.
Thanks,
This is my first thread on this site.
