Hi can this motherboard run windows 8, and can it run 64 bits os?

Yes it will run windows 8 and it can handle a 64bit OS. Now is it going to be a speed demon? Nope. It should be a stable little computer.

http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=613#specSo, yes, it can do both...
221742
Yes. runs it quite well at that! YES x64 . I wouldnt run 32 it will slow the board up.Ive built 12 of these so far!

I am running 64bit ubuntu server without any problem, I do not run win8, I think it should be fine.

Well, it can definitely run a 64 bit os, and, as for Win8: http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=618#spec The short answer is yes.

Im running Linux Mint 17 so I cant say Windows 8 will work with this card ...sorry.

I think so, but more than likely you will only utilize 32-bit of your system. I suggest you look into an upgrade for 64-bit systems only.

Yes, windows 7 and 8 64 bit are going to work perfectly. Just remember to install the latest catalyst drivers, at this moment are 14.10 beta.

this board will work with any sata connections and 20 or 24 pin power supply. any windows OS can be installed to this MB. this board only supports 3rd gen intels including quad cores with 1155 as the socket is an 1155.

The CPU is x64 based processor so I am going to take a wild guess, Yes Windows 8 should be 64bit as well otherwise it will not recognize the entire 4GB anyway but I highly doubt it will be Pro Edition... Most likely Home Edition. --Edit There is no such thing as Home, there is 8/8.1 and 8/8.1 Pro but it is comparable to the home vs pro in previous versions of Windows.

Yes, this CPU is able to run 64-bit operating systems and software. I used this CPU model, with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, and it ran Great.

it supports windows 8 but you computer should also meet windows 8 specification in order to run win8 smoothly ......the board is ok but check your other hardware specs

It is 64-bit, but it is 32-bit compatible so you can install a 32bit version of Windows or any other operating system. You may want make sure your motherboard is compatible.

yes - it is 8 - 64 bit. there is a down load that will give you a windows seven start page which I would reccoment. This is a lot of computer for the money. I have had no issues except with windows 8 -- and skype. A new version of skype is on the computer -- but I reloaded the old version which was much more user friendly. rob

(probably a little late to reply) i would assume if it were Windows 7 capable at all, it should run against anything Windows 7.. including 64 bit. that's a good question.. it really is sad that the consumer can't just pick one to their fancy and expect it to run D:they should all run on anything with today's day and age, go figure.

Windows 8 64 bit comes preinstalled. Please feel free to ask me any other questions.

The 64bit Windows 7 will not work on a 32bit computer; I believe that if you tried to install it, you would get a message saying that the OS will only work on 64bit systems.

This CPU will work with either 64-bit or 32-bit, but you would be much better off using a64-bit OS.

Hi sorry for the delay in responding to the question, but Yes Windows 8 will work perfectly fine with this MB and what ever processor you chose to use. I would suggest at least getting Windows 8 pro 64 bit, if not Pro edition, the home edition is fine. But make sure you get the 64bit edition or you will not get benefit of the Ram needed, which should be at least 8 gigs. I am currently running 16 Gigs, which is more than enough, but 8 gigs is the perfect amount. There is no need for 32 gigs that is going overboard on ram or anything really over 16 for that matter. Just depends on what games or plans you have to use this new machine. Hope that answers your question.

Yes Robert, it is a 64 bits processor. I am using it right now. I'm very happy with the performance.
