Solve : Motherboard x Processor?

1.	Solve : Motherboard x Processor?
Answer» Is there compatibility between MB ASUS M5 A78L-M LX/BR and AMD Phenom II X4 - 965 Black Edition? I've been working with both, about one month, WITHOUT any issue. At boot, a message shows CPU incompatibility, but works fine. In MB's specifications, CPU supports 95 W, differently from PROCESSOR, with 125W of power. In a future time, could I experience some problem ? Thanks. The processor is not listed to be compatible with your motherboard pertaining to the cpu wattage output. It is best to follow the recommended components to avoid any unwanted effects or damage. You should stop using that CPU, if the board is only RATED to 95W you run a very real risk of blowing the VRMs on the board, which can potentially CAUSE a fire.
