Can I use an AMD Athlon Multi Core Processor AD760KWOHLBOX, 760K Richland 3.8GHz Socket FM2 100W with this motherboard?

Yes. Great little motherboard. Of course, use your due diligence to insure you have the right power supply, RAM, etc.

According to ASROCK's website this cpu is compatible BUT you need a graphics card to go with it.

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)

The mobo supports AM3+ socket processors and the A10 is a FM2 socket so they aren't compatible. If you want this mobo than go with FX CPU with discreet graphics. I chose this setup with a radeon hd7870 and I love it. Works great for me with amazing power and didn't cost nearly as much as I could have spent.

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?

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.

Asrock doesn't list that CPU as supported on their website. http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970%20Extreme3/?cat=CPU It might not be supported because of the high wattage on that CPU (220W). Other FX models that are 125W and 95W are supported though with a bios update. *edit* Actually looking under specifications this motherboard is only rated up to 140W so you would need a lower powered CPU for this motherboard. http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970%20Extreme3/?cat=Specifications

Here is a list of all CPU's compatible with this board. Athlon II x4 750 is listed there too so it should work no problem. http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A75%20Pro4-M/index.us.asp?cat=CPU

No, this is a motherboard for ONLY AMD processors. I did your homework for you, and found a compatible board, good price, and good quality for the Intel i7 4470k Quad-Core. Click the link: Gigabyte LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gbps USB 3.0 ATX DDR3 1600 Intel Motherboards GA-Z87-HD3

No, if it's the desktop that I'm thinking of, this chip is too old for it. Your motherboard only supports AM2 or higher. Look for these: AMD Phenom II Quad-Core AMD Phenom II Triple-Core AMD Phenom Quad-Core (A) 9xxx series (AM2+) AMD Phenom Triple-Core (T) 8xxx series (AM2+) AMD Athlon X4 AMD Athlon X3 AMD Athlon X2 (B) (AM2+) Sources: http://h20566.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/kb/docDisplay?javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.prp_ba847bafb2a2d782fcbb0710b053ce01=wsrp-navigationalState%3DdocId%253Demr_na-c02131097-23%257CdocLocale%253D%257CcalledBy%253D&javax.portlet.tpst=ba847bafb2a2d782fcbb0710b053ce01&sp4ts.oid=4162245&ac.admitted=1393207921410.876444892.199480143

Yes you can! I use an AMD Athlon IIx4 640 3.00GHZ Quad. This board will take AM3 and AM3+ Processors.

according to the MSI website you should be good.. http://us.msi.com/support/mb/760GMP23_FX.html#support-cpu

yes... if the processor is lga775 you can use a core 2 duo or dual core processors with this board... i did it

no. this motherboard is build to use AMD brand CPUs. you need to look for the Maximus IV Extreme-Z motherboard by ASUS.

Jeff, the question you need to confirm is what Socket is compatible with the motherboard on that computer. It has to be an AM3 socket. Then yes, you will be able to use this CPU and you will notice a major improvement in performance. I do a lot of video rendering and it cut my time in half from the Anthlon II 260 I had installed in my pc. Great CPU. I'm very pleased with it... Find it for under $100 and it's a score... Hope this helps.

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.

Yes, it will work. You can check this out at http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Bulldozer/AMD-Athlon%20II%20X4%20750K.html

I really don't think so. AMD FX processors don't have the socket configuration for this motherboard. It has been built to receive AMD A series, but you can check if FX-8320 have socket FM2.
