I have a ASUS Motherboard M5A87 and a AMD Phenom II Black Edition Quad Core Processor (X4 965). I want a faster better processor for the motheboard.

This one has been very stable up to 4.9 mhz O.C.! And has beed that way since i built the machine. So if what you are arking is if it a faster processor the answer is Yes

That isn't really a question, so not sure exactly what information you are looking for. But, the m5a87 is a socket am3+ board, which is the socket type for this cpu, so they are compatible.

update your bios first then buy and install the AMD FX-8350 .according to asus weebsite http://support.asus.com/cpusupport/list.aspx?SLanguage=en&p;=1&m;=M5A87&hashedid;=Sy2zparhZzfQeQp0it should work with the original bios. buy here AMD FD8350FRHKBOX FX-8350 FX-Series 8-Core Black Edition Processor

The FX processors require a different socket than the Phenom so a new mobo will be required. It also has the video built on to the chip, ok but not the best. Check out Tomshardware.com.

I think AMD II BLACK EDITION QUAD CORE PROCESOR (X4 965) is more than enough for that Motherboard M5A87. My son has a ASUS M4A78LT-M and Phenom II Black Edition Quad Core Processor (X4965) and it is 100% stable with 4 cores active. Left this to a 3.410mhz vcore 1.392 (220x15, 5) and he has more than enough CPU.

No the motherboard is am3 and the cpu socket is fm2 so if you already have that motherboard just look for a am3 processor(cpu)

depends on the reason you want a faster processor. For intensive games and video editing, more cores and faster processor would help. Otherwise, want you have should be sufficient.

You need a processor that has a built in graphics. Like the A4, A6 or A8. Like this http://www.amazon.com/AMD-Quad-Core-A8-Series-A8-6600K-AD660KWOHLBOX/dp/B00CPLGGWS/ The processor you have is a straight CPU, where as the A4, A6 and A8 are classed as APUs. The processor you have will need a dedicated graphics card to go along with the board.

I'm not familiar with either product, so I can't say. My computer with the AMD Phenom II sits next to one with an Intel Socket 1150 i3, and although the Intel is a more recent CPU, I think the AMD may be faster in use (although it could be 16G of ram vs. 8G).

Yes. Go to cpuupgrade.com and put in your board and it will list the processors.

I had this processor with an Intel Motherboard and worked fine. I just change it for an ASUS because the performance....

Check the Gigabyte website for this motherboard and what CPUs are supported by this motherboard. Here's the link: http://www.gigabyte.us/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=495. You should be good to go with this processor. Great MB.

No, you cannot upgrade the processor as far as I know. It is not intended for intensive workload although it is much better than regular desktop PCs even if these have more CPU processing power. The reason being that it is designed as a server. It runs very efficiently 24/7 and is mostly silent. You can add more RAM but it is recommended that you use a server graded module.

Well, the best processor you can get for that board would be a Phenom II X6 1100T, and the board is more then capable of supporting it... CPU wise that would be the best, they are rare and not cheap as most are looking for about $250+ for a used or "like new" cpu... I bought a "like new" 1100T about 6 months ago and it works great and it beats some of the low end FX cpu's on the market today. Thing to keep in mind is that AM3 CPU's only support up to 1333MHz ram so if you're looking at beefing up more then just a CPU then you might want to get an AM3+ board with an FX processor so you can use ram up to 1866MHz... Happy Hunting and Good Luck...

No. This motherboard has a LGA 1155 socket and the processor you want requires a LGA 1150 socket.

Any AMD AM3+ processor. The one I installed is the AMD FX-8370 Black Edition 8 Core CPU Processor (200 bucks from Amazon). If you are going to use a high-end processor like this plus a fast graphics card, be sure and put in a power supply of at least 600 watts . . . 1000 watts preferably.

Sorry to disappoint you Tracy L. The processor you want is in the FM2 grouping that is not compatible with the AM3+ socket. My best suggestion for you is to look into the FX series for the latest CPUs that work with AM3+ sockets. I do not know what your needs are, meaning business or gaming. I am a gamer and just use a 3.1 dual core CPU. Not much a CPU but it is Radeon graphics enhanced and matched to a 6670 HD video card. I can enjoy games such as Skyrim with no frame-rate fluctuations. Perhaps I could suggest something for you if you would give me more information about your needs and your PC. Thank you for asking me and I am at your service if needed.

It could if you're replacing a weaker CPU. It handles overclocking quite well up to almost 4.1ghz. If you want a better CPU for the 775 board, try Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 @ 2.66GHz. You can find one under $100.00. But, if you really want a better upgrade, I'd suggest you get an 1155 socket board and I5 or I7 CPU plus DDR3 ram. Much better upgrade.

It doesn't look like it. The specs on the motheboard only describe AM2+ chips, like the Winsor I have in my "media PC", which uses an ASUS M2N-series motherboard. The Phenom II is an AM3 chip, in an ASUS M5A97 EVO board.

No, that processor requires an LGA 1155 socket. This motherboard has the newer LGA 1150.
