is this compatible with am3+?

To be honest I do not know. The box lists AM3 but not AM3+. Why not email Xigmatek?

Yes it is compatible with am3+. AMD Socket AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3+, FM1, FM2, and FM2+ can all use the same CPU cooler.

Yes it will fit. The AM3+ has a baseplate that fits. I used it on an AM3 and an Intel mount without issues.

You can put a socket am3 cpu on a socket am3+ motherboard but u cant put a am3+cpu on an am3 socket mb

No it is not, this is an FM1 chip. I am not aware of any AMD APU that works in AM3 or AM3+.Here is some info on this chip and socket type:http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K10/AMD-A6-Series%20A6-3500.htmlhttp://www.cpu-world.com/Sockets/Socket%20FM1.html

of course. This is a great motherboard and include support to latest AMD® Socket AM3. I buy another motherboard with this processor, but this one is much better.

if compared to 3.0 and procesadro is am3 +, so you should see if your processor is AM3

You should go for AM3+The AM3+ socket is required for the FX series of processors based on Bulldozer.AM3 supports Athlon II/Phenom IIAM3+ supports Athlon II/Phenom II/FXAm3+ support for DDR3 SDRAMYou can put an AM3 processor in an AM3+ socket, but not the other way around.

This processor will not work. If you look at the processor's specifications, it says it's a socket AM3.

My 2 cents... All AM3 and AM3+ designated CPU's are pin compatible, however, the '+' in the AM3+ designation means that the FX series of processors can take advantage of the enhanced power management and support features available on AM3+ motherboards (and some that only needed a BIOS upgrade to make them FX/AM3+ compatible). The '+' features lend stability and added power for serious over-clocking. In other words, the FX series can plug into any AM3 motherboard, but unless it is designated as an AM3+ motherboard (or FX/AM3+ compatible), you can't expect to take advantage of its Bulldozer enhancements. IMO, it's doubtful whether an FX processor can perform to its potential on a motherboard that is simply 'BIOS upgraded' to AM3+ compatibility.

That CPU is a AM3+ socket. This Mobo has a AM3 socket. Some AM3 motherboards did receive patches to make them compatible for AM3+ CPU's, but this one was not one of them. That CPU will not work to my knowledge.

Felix,You will need an AM3+ motherboard to use with an AM3+ processor. Unfortunately, your motherboard will not work.

It should be compatible. Both the board and the CPU use AM3+ socket. For the incompatibility alert, did you check that you have enough power from the PSU?

I have an AM3+ board, but for the compatibility please look for your board here: http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=compatibility_gen&products;_id=37&lng;=es, or write an email to support@noctua.at.

Yes it works with the AM3+, I have an Asus M5A99FX board that I put it on. You don't even need to change the mount on the board, but you will need a the Lever/Clip for the Zalman-I received my Clip with the buy, depends who you're getting it from I guess. Great product, my CPU is always low 7-15C depending on how I set the fan-speed.

The FM2+ is only compatible with boards clearly marked FM2+. The APU is not backwards compatible and will not fit into the socket of a standard FM2 board.

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.

Unfortunatly it does not. If you're looking for AM3+ support try this board which I also own and can vouch for. ASUS SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0 AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
