Will this fit amd fm2? My motherboard is the micro ATX ASUS F2A85-M PRO FM2

This cooler is big and heavy. So if you are cramped for space or have a small mobo, there are other lighter coolers out there to consider.Although this is an outstanding cooler!

No. This is socket FM2 for new AMD hybrid processors APU. For 6 core Phenom you need AM3 or AM3+ socket motherboard.

Wait a minute there! This board is NOT for your fm3+ CPU. You need the MSI 970 Gaming board. This one is for a fm2+

This fan has two mounting brackets for normal and mini motherboards. The FM2 boards are no different than the AM2/AM2+/AM3/ AM3+ and FM1/FM2 socket dimensions. The only differnece is the CPU chip istelf. Be aware that you will need to "trick" your motherboard in believeing it has a fan. Since there are no electrical wires to let your motherboard know that the CPU had a fanless cooler (some motherboards will not boot up if they "think" the fan is not pluged in). Also, this cooler is fairly tall. Make sure your case has enough clearance. Kind regards

Neither, this is a socket FM2+ those need am3+ so they won't fit. You would want something like the a10-7850K in this one

Yes it sould work with any AM2 socket motherboard I put mine in a insprion 531s hope everything works out for ya.

Yes this has mounting options for amd FM and am sockets. So it will fit that mother board.

If the CPU uses the FM2+ socket-type, it won't fit in an FM2 socket because it has additional pins. FM2 CPUs will fit in both sockets. More here - http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Kaveri-AMD-FM2-FM2b-Socket,22949.html

The processor you have mentioned is indeed a 100W FM2 processor, so yes. Reference: http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Bulldozer/AMD-A10-Series%20A10-5800K.html

It will only work with fm1 motherboards, fm2 motherboards only works with apu a10

It depends on the motherboard on the system. If the mother supports FM1 chipset, then yes.

Yes, since the CPU is a FM2 chip, it will work, but remember that you can only install cpu's with quad cores or less

Yes they are compatible. They are both AM3+ sockets. If you are doing a new build and not just updating your processor, I would recommend going with an FM2 processor and board. The AMD APU processors are really fast, and don't get as hot. If you decided to stay with this processor, make sure you have an exhaust fan, it does get hot in the case with the stock fan. This processor runs fast and hot under loads. If you plan on over clocking, get a bigger heatsink and fan!Hope this helps!

It depends on whick motherboard you have if it is an fm2 also the buos has to be update in the motherboard to 2.1 or 2.2

Yeah it should work, Athlons use FM2 socket and in the description of the motherboard it supports AMD Athlon ^^

NO, the 8 core cpu has an AM3+ socket, this motherboard is specific to FM2/FM2+, i believe there is a version of this motherboard with the AM3+ socket, be aware that not all AM3+ motherboards can support the 8 core cpu's due to the 125w tdp. good luck!

It claims to fit LGA 2011/1366/1156/1155/775 and FM1/AM3+/AM3/AM2. Mine is a 1366 so I can only vouch for that.
