Hello guys!
I have GA-MA770-DS3 (rev. 2.0) with new BIOS update FDc and in few days im going to buy new CPU.
Phenom II X2 555 Black Edition is not in support list...only Phenom II X2 550 .
Will this CPU work on my MBO?

Thx!

Hi,

as the 555 BE CPU is not currently on the support list I doubt if it will run and personally it is not a risk I would take.

However you could try contacting Gigabyte Tech support to see if there is a newer BIOS on the way which will support the 555 or even if the latest BIOS actually supports it. (The CPU support list isn't always updated correctly)
