Processor Compatiblity

[jimmyb007]

I plan on getting an AMD Bulldozer Fx 6100 socket Am3+ 6 core processor running at 3.30ghz and i wonder if it would be compatible with my Asus M4A89 Gtd pro motherboard

From the asus website it is compatible if you update the bios to 3027. It is only beta support though, so there may be some bugs until a better bios version comes out.

Edit: Curious what processor do you have now?

at the moment i have a AMD PHENOM X4 965 BLACK EDITION

I would recommend keeping your current processor.

Yes ,keep that processor and get your gts 450 or gtx 550Ti.

Yes, your current processor is faster and more efficient than a 6100.
