you don't understand...

If you build a computer with and E8400 on a P35 motherboard IT WILL NOT WORK! you need to buy another (older) CPU and flash the motherboard BIOS then uninstall old cpu and install 45nm E8400.

buying 2 cpus will be more expensive than buying a 45nm ready motherboard.

this does not apply to all P35 boards, some of them come with updated bios.
