E8400 update, how?

@amd125:

Are those tests to see if a game will run on your system or not? For that, it's better to download a demo if possible, or check forums to see if people with a similar setup can run it. Because graphics in general are more important for running a game than the CPU.

Update... you probably mean changing the CPU, I suppose. You have to remove the CPU and put another one that is compatible with your motherboard. You can probably put a Quad Core in. A new one will be expensive, so it's probably better to look for a second-hand one, since the 775 platform is already outdated. Although, if you look at my signature, I have a Quad Core 775 and I'm very happy with it, but it's not worth buying a new CPU, which will cost over 100€, when there are Quad Cores like mine that are sold for about 60€.

When I said update, I meant the software if it's possible, just like you update a motherboard (of course, it's a more complex piece).

I suppose what he is referring to is the message from some program like Everest, Sandra or Windows 7 itself that advises you to update the processor.

In that case, what they mean is that you change the micro for a more modern one... although that is your choice, if with the E8400 you have enough you don't have to update.

You won't be able to update absolutely anything through software, unless you change your operating system to a higher one or change to more current drivers, which is not recommended if everything works correctly.
Through software, your processor will not obtain more power or better performance, as they tell you it would only happen if you replace the processor with a higher one.

Greetings

PD: I'm glad to read you faliqui

The processor does not have a BIOS to update, it's like trying to update a quartz clock.

@Sylver:

PD: Me alegro de leerte faliqui

Pues si que hace tiempo que no posteo… la paternidad es muy dura :mudo:

De hecho, acabo de actualizar mi firma, creo que he cambiado de equipos 2 veces con respecto a lo que tenía en mi perfil

@faliqui:

Well, it's been a while since I posted… parenthood is very hard :mudo:

In fact, I just updated my signature, I think I've changed teams 2 times compared to what I had on my profile

I'm glad to see you again, life is like that

at most you could try to do some O.C to the micro. I suppose something like W7 has indicated that you update the micro but it's better not to pay much attention to those things because otherwise you'll spend your life updating the PC (a while ago W7 told me that it doesn't like the RAID 0 of my signature, it wants an SSD :D:D:D)

Is that what W7 says or your inner CNCBCN? :lol:

I think it's the 6.1 of this ImageShack - Online Photo and Video Hosting anyway I don't pay much attention to these things :nono: with V Prove the micro is at 1000 MHz and it scores me a 4.2 and at 2.9 a 7.2 and on the hard drive it doesn't care if it's newly installed W or if it needs to be defragmented already

In my Windows 7 it clearly said: "unlock the other two cores and stop messing with the micro capped"
