Hi ,
I own a gigabyte motherboard that uses the A55 chip , and am thinking of updating from my AMD A10 6800k to the new AMD Godavari 7870k , have looked on the motherboard support page and it appears that this motherboard supports the new chip , is this true ?

Yes, this motherboard does support the CPU but you will need to update to latest BIOS FE before installing the new CPU for things to work properly.
Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.
