Intel D945GTP + Pentium D 935

[Jeff]

I've getting ready to rebuild a box using an Intel D945GTP board with a
Pentium D 935 CPU. I've made the assumption that since the Intel website
says that board supports the Pentium D that it'll support the 935. However,
when you look at the list of supported processors (link below), it excludes
the 935.

It shows compatibility with the 915, 925 and 945 ... why would the 935 be
any different?

Maybe it takes the "Testing Department" 3 months to test new product ?
They cannot list something, until they've tried it. They're Intel
after all. Only the other motherboard companies can afford bad press
coverage.

I don't understand why they can't keep their site updated. It works as I
suspected.
