Title: Update gigabyte with "no supported" processor
Post by: cocori002 on February 04, 2014, 02:07:33 am

Hello, I have 1 question I will buy two Gigabyte F2A88X-D3H with amd 760k processor but in the support cpu list  the 760k is compatible with "F2" bios version and I don't know if the motherboards come with "f1" bios version. Can I update the motherboard with the 760K if it comes with "f1" bios or I will have problems?

PD: Sorry for my english.

thanks.

you will need a CPU compatible with F1 BIOS to update to F2

Buy a cheap AMD APU FM2 , the little 5300 ,update BIOS and install the new CPU.
