I was wondering what is the max CPU I can put in my Acer M3300-e1222 is i know its a AM2+/AM3 socket but I can't find any information only on what CPU it can hold max or what the max CPU wattage it supports is.

Current CPU is a Athlon X4 620 2.6ghz

    According to a service guide, this model uses AM3 socket and supports AMD Phenom II 925, AMD Phenom II 805, AMD Phenom II 720! However confirm the socket with aida64, because the same model cards may show small differences!

    Makes sense. So the socket wont support something like a AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition HDT90ZFBK6DGR

    I downloaded aida64 and is says North Bridge    AMD K10 IMC and North Bridge    AMD RS780/RS880
