Gigabyte GA-8i848p-g socket 478

[Bungral]

Hi folks.

My mate has a mate who has a Gigabyte GA-8i848p-g socket 478 mobo.

Anybody happen to know if any old 478 should work in it?

Reason I ask is that it's having problems and wont post. Lights come on and fans spin but no post.. Expect it to be dead cpu or dead mobo. Can get some pretty old 478s for him to test but just want to know if they will work in it.

Theres two different power specs in 478. Dunno what the 848 chipset is but you'll need to try an old 1.75v chip and a newer, lesser vcore chip to find out which.

Or go read the supported cpu list i spose...

Just looked for that but couldn't find it.

Hmmmm

I was being a knob... found the compat list.

Seems it'll support most of them no?

 

[Ghosthud1]

It says it supports the willimette core so you should be fine on all chips.
