« on: August 11, 2010, 08:41:14 am »
Is the Gigabyte board GA-890FXA-UD5 890FX
compatible with my AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Socket AM3 3.2 GHz 8MB L3 Cache Processor?
&
G.SKill NQ Series 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz CL9 Dual Channel memory Kit - F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ memory

I've looked on the list it doesnt seem to be there.

Hi,

Just checking through the specs for the Rev2.0 & 2.1 boards and both the CPU and RAM are supported.

Yes, don't worry it is supported. If you want confirmation you can double check by contacting Gigabyte Sales & Marketing here: http://ggts.gigabyte.com.tw/nontech.asp

Stupid boy! Penguins only have little legs and can't run fast enough. You should really try and think things through a little better.

I'm more concerned about the amount of sunflower seeds the gerbil's are consuming.

Ah well that's it see, all those piles of black husks covering the icecap is contributing to the greenhouse effect! Now we know who to blame.

Oh, and I thought I was to blame for global warming, because I have turned off all the energy saving features on my mobo!
