Can AMD Phenom X4 9650 Quad to use in motherboard Asus M4A78T-E ?

go to Asus web site and get the pecs for the board. it should tell you what processors will work with the board.

you cannot use m4a78t-e to amd phenom x4 9650 because it does not support am2+ socket, it only support am3,phenom II,sempron 100, and athlon II processor.

if you did not used heat sink paste between the heat sink and the cpu unit, that, will be you problem initially
the paste is used to exclude any air and gaps between the cpu back and the heat sink and makes a perfect heat transfer medium
cpu units will hit critical temps within seconds if the heat is not being transfered correctly

Hi,

Sounds like a procie problem.

Check your processor's heatsink, if it really sits flat on your processsor.

Try to replace with another processor, take note of your socket if that is for the board's requirement.
Put a new heatpste too.

Then tell us the effect.

Thanks for using Fixya!

Try pulling all but first slot memory stick, then reboot and see if that works. If so after set up add the rest. This worked for mine.

The M3N78-em mobo doesn't support AM3 processors. It is an AM2 / AM2+ platform. A wonderful GPU for you would be this. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102858

If you have any other questions please write back in this thread. I will be happy to help you through your computer upgrade.

No. the Motherboard only Supports Phenom II X3, Phenom II X4.

could be a number of things.try totally different memory, cpu, motherboard. swap things out til you find the one thats the culprit.

keep pressing del as u start the pc u will see the bios
as far as GPU is there u can do it from the bios for overclock related thing and for other thing u can do it using the windows

off course is compatible.
