GA-78LMT-S2P (rev. 4.0) & FX-8320e

[Patchy1986]

Hi, im hoping someone can help with this one.
As you have probbably guessed im looking ad the most cost effective way of getting a bit more from my rig. Could you guys tell me if the new fx-8320e (95w) will work on the GA-78LMT-S2P (rev. 4.0).

From what i've seen on the supported cpu list on the website it shows all the 95w cpu from when the board was released and since then newer boards have been made so no updates or support for this one.

Anyone by any chance tried this?

well it's not on the list Socket AM3+ - AMD 760G - GA-78LMT-S2P (rev. 4.0) however the 8300 is and it look like the L3 cache set them a part cpuboss now bios rev 4 with 8300 is FDc but the rev 5 of same board is F4b

now IF you can use 8320e the mosfet vrm will need cooling if you are doing any oc

now if you are like me not ready to go over to the darkside then it's time to put same money to side to put together AM4 system

oh and you need watercool it .

now the fractal design kelvin s24 is too thin for the 9590 at stock 4.9 220w  but 95w could maybe not have a problem

Im not planning on overclocking, atleast not unless.i upgrade the board.  Just wanted to know if it would work as the 8320 is not supported due to the 125w but the 8150e, 8320e and 8350e are all 95w.

Im currently running an fx 6100 with r9 270x 2gb and 4gb ram (soon to be 16gb) and want to be able to run some games like doom (2016) for example.
