Title: GA-M57SLI-S4 (rev. 2.0) FHK bios any good?
Post by: RB94GT on January 18, 2010, 01:28:21 am

I posted this in someone elses thread. Didn't get any replys maybe because iot's the weekend or in another thread. Anyways I want to install a PhenomII X3 720 BE just wondering since its a beta bios most of the issues are worked. Shouls I expect plug and play or a lot of messing around to get it running?

Hi,
Here is the cpu support list for your mobo,
http://www.giga-byte.co.uk/Support/Motherboard/CPUSupport_Model.aspx?ProductID=2539#anchor_os
It's on the support list with FHK bios,
So it should be plug and play!
cheers

I have FC bios now can I just flash the FHK? Or should I go 1 update at a time?

Hi,
No reason not to go  right away,
just save your old bios files, just in case,
cheers
