Your board supports Phenom II's, why do you want a Athlon :p

Really? You serious. I keep checking the Asus website, I did not think it supported the phenom II's! I thought only Phenom I's!

As long as a board supports Phenom I it will work with II. I know this as a fact.
It will say that it's a Unknown AMD CPU but it will still work. I was using my 720 on a 740g board a few days ago and it worked great. Just ran at HT1000 is all.
And I have a ASUS GeForce 6100 board if you want me to test it :)

Sounds sweet! I'll trust you. I might take a look into that. Although I am just looking for a "life extender" for this board till i9 or whatever is next.

Thats not 100% true Shadow. Some will be PhenomII 140watt. Unless you're board supports that wattage you wont be running a PhenomII in the future.

Check for a bios. Its better to KNOW your board supports a PhenomII.

Well yea but the 720 and 920/925 are both 95w. I will test the 720 in my GF6100 board later today and see how it works. I'm kinda interested in it myself.

The 740g I was using didn't have any official support for PII and I was even overclocking it.

Thats cool. Post the results. I think it would be fun to test but I wouldn't do something like that with my main rig. You're begging for problems.

:laugh: I don't doubt it or you. I just question the long term stability.

Super cheap 700W PSU for $45 shipped!

http://www.newegg.com/Special/ShellShocker.aspx

It's an Apevia brand and the specs are marginal but good for that noob that needs a 700W psu cause his online calculator told him his 8800 GT and Dual Core Pentium sucked 600W alone.

For $50 it's really good. Plus you can cut a case window or another cheap mod and really make it a nice custom case for well under $100.
