Can i run this cpu on my pc?

[shrimpgfx]

Well Hi there,

I have a question and want to let you guy know that i am not good that with tech so...

I have a fujitsu p710 e85+ with 250w80+ psu so I want to upgrade my cpu but I am not sure if my psu is going to deliver enough power to the cpu

I am planning to replace my pentium g870(65w TDP) with core i5 2400(95w TDP)

 

Edit: I also have gpu Gefor 8600 Gt

250W is low, but if its not an OEM and the connector is the same, 400W is plenty.

250W is plenty for that CPU and GPU. 

 

Although I'd personally take the 8600GT out, as it's basically the same speed as the HD2500 graphics in that i5-2400. If you

need a GPU for whatever reason, get something like a GT730 GDDR5 on the cheap.

tnx for ur answer

so From where can i but gt730 in the cheap?

Here is the list of compatible CPUs. For some reason it doesn't show the i5 2400

It's supports up i7 3770. Which should be fine although it doesn't show the i5 2400

Places like eBay, gumtree/craigslist type of websites, local classifieds etc.

Well tbh i didnt saw it either but i guess it will be compatible because it is socket 1155

I have not seen a PC that CPU whitelists for any reason other than CPU TDP being too high, or if the bios doesn't have the required microcode, so it should work.

Not always! Like now with the LGA 1151 Socket, there's about 4 generations. the 6th, 7th, 8th and, 9th. There's different motherboards that support some of these chips. Like a 200 series board is usually for the 7th gen CPU's but` if you tried to put a 8th or 9th gen CPU in there, it won't work. Basically speaking, the CPUs are not backwards compatible with older Mobos. Or something like that...

Intel has pulled this trick a few times, yes.

 

Socket 604:  1-6 cores per CPU, first revisions only accept single core, last revision 2-6.

Socket 775:  1-4 cores. Some chipsets only allowed P4/PD/Celeron D, others up to core 2 duo, others up to core 2 quad, others all 775 CPUs. Good luck with that.

And now, socket 1151 and the "1151v2" as it's often referred to as, to differentiate between 100/200 boards and 300. GG.

You'll be fine, 1155 didn't have the above issues.
