Hello, Last Year, I bought this barebones kit from MagicMicro.
It has an ASUS P5B-F Motherboard. Now, I am planning to upgrade the processor to a Quad Core Q6600 Processor. What will I need to do to perform this upgrade? Will my CPU fan still work with it or must I need a higher CPU fan? I am not sure what fan I got, but it came with my pentium d processor.
