Well I have this computer for a while...
Its an old Acer T180 with the MCP61PM board. Ive already found the abit bios mod. Havent done it yet. Before I found this forum I had already thrown in an Athlon 5200+ windsor 4gb of ram (2 were supposed to be dual speed 667/800 and 2 are 800 but 2 only seem to run 667... Dram freq is 326mhz) as well as a 600w bronze power supply and a 6700 series video card. Ive also already put 2 new case fans in the computer.
So heres the actual question. I was wanting to drop in a 7750 Black am2+ cpu. Any idea if it will work with the bios mod? Can get one so cheap its honestly worth the shot.
And on another question Ive seen the max ram for this board is 4gb. But seen a couple of times people reporting they have managed to run 8gb on it. Any confirmation to this?
Thanks
Rich
