Can you add a second CPU chip to this motherboard ?

I do not believe you can add a second CPU. However, it appears you can upgrade the CPU, although it is expensive. See this link: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/turnkey/MacPro/2010_Xeon_Processor

No you can not (at least not officially). There are work-arounds you can do and some bios updates that you can apply but intel claims that it's an exploit and plans to patch it sometime. You need a Z87 for overclocking along with a "K" model intel processor.

Yes you can game with this CPU. Please check with game for specification requirements.

Yes, but get low-profile RAM and a case with a cutout for the CPU backplate.

Yes, you can fit that CPU on this motherboard!!!!Here are the list of CPUs compatible with this motherboard!!http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/960GC-GS%20FX/index.la.asp?cat=CPU

You could, It would be bottle necked by your CPU. I'd look at getting a new mobo setup if possible

This comes with the processor "embedded" or permanently attached. You'll need to look for a motherboard with a FM2 or FM2+ socket, then check the manufacturers website to be sure it's compatible.

Yes you can. You can use just one of the listed supported CPU's. If you're having issues with a certain CPU you may need the BIOS upgraded, or buy a BIOS chip with the upgraded BIOS needed for the processor you're using.

Make sure the Motherboard supports Pcie 2.0 or 3.0 and that the cpu supports pcie 2.0. In my opinion it should work. But just verify what I mentioned above

Yes, you can. But i recommend that try with a FX 6300 processor. is in this moment at same price.

I don't believe so.........the motherboard will support certain Core 2 Duo CPUs but not Quad Core CPUs.

Yes I can utilize the graphics that the new processors have built in. Should be some video outputs on the board. This is sufficient for everything but gaming or more than 2 monitors.

Yes you can! I use an AMD Athlon IIx4 640 3.00GHZ Quad. This board will take AM3 and AM3+ Processors.

Yes. But you must provide CPU power to both CPUs (EATX12V1 and EATX12V2), even though CPU #2 is not installed. I ended up having to purchase a power supply that had 2 EATX connectors. Page 2.34 is a bit vague.

Yes, as long as the model ends in 5 or 6 (the CPU must have a built in GPU if you plan on using the onboard video ports). I'm using a Xeon E3-1226 with this board.

I don't see why that could not be accomplished. However, you need to, first, check with the company that manufactures the processor.
