Yes, but get low-profile RAM and a case with a cutout for the CPU backplate.

Yes you should be able, depending on your processor and amount of RAM available

Yes, you can. But i recommend that try with a FX 6300 processor. is in this moment at same price.

Your best bet is to call the computer tech for your brand of computer. It is too easy for a novice to get the wrong processor (I did) and have to ask to return it.

Your processor will be fine with this board, but I'd need more info about your RAM and the power supply you intend to use in the system to give you more information.

No, you cannot upgrade the processor as far as I know. It is not intended for intensive workload although it is much better than regular desktop PCs even if these have more CPU processing power. The reason being that it is designed as a server. It runs very efficiently 24/7 and is mostly silent. You can add more RAM but it is recommended that you use a server graded module.

According to the specifications from Asus, the processor is supported, but I have no personal experience with it.

Thanks a lot for your response Askal, I have a core i7 2.98 Ghz with 4 GB RAM I will get the unit.

yes... if the processor is lga775 you can use a core 2 duo or dual core processors with this board... i did it

I haven't tried to do it, but I don't see why not so long as there is a Mint/Linux kernel for that CPU and drivers. Note that the machine came with the OS installed so be sure to do a backup and boot media. You might want to contact ASUS: http://service.asus.com, +01888-678-3688 to be sure.

Sorry, I don't know, I need to get a new mother board for mine, and am not sure what one I can use, to upgrade to the fastest Mother Board I can use with the processor. I have looked the charts online only find them confusing.

Yes, you can. Any video card is compatible with this processor. If you are installing both items new, just remember to change your Bios Graphics Settings to PCI, before first boot.

No this is a barebone kit...motherboard, processor and case...u still need hard drive, memory, as well as a disc drive.

yes but archicad recommends a quad core, we do have them, it does meet the minimum requirements but it may be slow.

This processor will require a separate discrete graphics card, unless your motherboard has on-board video. Consult you motherboard manual if you aren't certain

No, you will not, there are special motherboard for this processor, like GA-990FXA, due to the power consumption of this processor.
