1 question: with this mobo, why whe i unlock a phenomII x4 960t to a 6 core, it does some times?

If the CPU has locked cores it can try to unlock them, sometimes the settings don't stick though due to the CPU.

If you have integrated graphics then you have the option of using that as your graphics engine or buying and installing a separate one, which would normally cause the bios to switch integrated one off. You have the choice of how much memory you want to funnel to the integrated, as opposed to the card which has it's own memory. I always prefer installing a card for more power.

Did you press f2 on restart? Not on initial start but bring it up then do a restart. I know that sounds weird but that is how I got my HE to see the 2GB memory. Hit the f2 key multiple times to get to the BIOS screen. When I installed the 667 mhz memory on my HE the vids were choppy, I replaced it with an 800 mhz and the problem is gone. Maybe I got a bad module, who knows?

I see that same thing in my task manager. I'm not sure, I do know for sure that this motherboard has custom soldered on 4gb of RAM in dual channel configuration and zero sodimm slots period. So, you can not upgrade. It is likely the processor and chipset are able to support another slot, if there were one. Asus has clearly really customized this machine to cram everything in here.

I have that mobo. It works. Just change the clock speed to 1866 in the bios and this s*** will be blazing fast.

Honestly i am not fully sure what the question is. I bought this because the mother board i have this was the highest processor that could go into it. it made it a lot more use fully for me

No, there might be ways to slightly overclock it or force the 4 cores to run at highest turbo speed but the improvement is insignificant. Get a K version if you really want overclock.

Mine works just fine with my Asus Maximus VI Formula. It's pretty much the same as your mobo. Maybe you have a bad processor or mobo.

Motherboards have sata ports, not cpu's, your question doesn't make any sense.I am not being mean, maybe you put your question in the wrong place, if it helps most motherboards have at least four and up, unless they are mini itx and then they usually have 2.

yeah i have an fx6300 with this mobo. All fx cpus use am3, which this one has.

Yes - I have it in an AM3+ motherboard right now. I even unlocked the 2nd core (although this is not a guarantee). Of course, go to your motherboard manufacturer's website. You'll find the list of CPUs supported. I would check there before I clicked the 'buy' button.

Its a dual core processor, but you have to set that preference in the bios.

Check for a mother board that has the ability to unlock cores. This chip is.a dual core but 1 is disabled by the manufacturer. This way they sell the same chip as 2 products. Buy this, unlock, and you have the more expensive dual core for the single core price.

I'm using a third generation cpu, but you shouldn't have any compatibility issues with the cpu, if anything you might have an issue with you're mobo. Make sure it's compatible with 2400 ram

You need a special BIOS that usually has modes for unlocking cores on these processors. I'm not SURE but they seem to be heavily geared towards custom built machines (desktop/towers) in most cases. My Asus board has an option for doing it, but I have never heard of laptops with them since the manufacturer generally either locks out advanced options or the boards just don't support them. You can feel free to look up information on "Phenom Core Unlocking" on any popular search engine if you want further info, but don't get your hopes up since it's an OEM computer. Good luck!

No it doesn't, is just the board and if you get this one take notice is for second/third generation Intel processors (current generation is fourth).I'm assuming you dont have a processor (CPU), so i will advice you to get a current generation board. Depending on your needs you can google stuff like "best budget cpu" or "best cpu for the money".Be careful about processors sockets when choosing a board

It's 4 pin, and it will work with 3 pin. You just won't have PWM speed control. You'll have to adjust speed in the BIOS or with another application. Consider buying a board with 4 pins if that is an option, as 3 pin boards are usually of cheaper quality.
