Will this motherboard support Phenom 965 C2 stepping (140watt)?
Gigabyte website says 140w support but cpu list says n/a
Thanks

Hi,
Looking at the Gigabyte UK site, I can't see where it says that this board has 140W support. ( http://www.giga-byte.co.uk/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ClassValue=Motherboard&ProductID=3138&ProductName=GA-MA785G-UD3H )
Looking through the CPU support list it seems it only supports those CPU's up to 125W.
I guess that the C3 version is OK to run on this board but the C2 version draws too much power, hence the reason it isn't supported.
