Does this board support all AM3+ chips, or just the Opteron? I wanted to use a pair of FX-4170s in it.

No, it only supports Opteron socket C32. AM3+ chips are completely different.Hope this helps.Jose SeisdedosTitanus Computerswww.titanuscomputers.com

No, this mainboard only accepts AMD socket C32 CPU's. The C32 processors actually use an entirely different pin configuration than most other AMD processors use. It uses LGA instead of the typical PGA socket.

This is not an AM3+ socket but C32 for multi-processors. I'm using 4226's but you can fill it with less expensive unregistered memory though at a hit in the cycle speeds, which makes up for the higher cpu cost.

Hi Kris,This board only supports processors using the Socket C32 interface, which is not compatible with AM3 in any way. You will need to buy Socket C32 opteron processors (NOT G34!) for this board.

My motherboard is am3+, so I don't know about the compaq's motherboard. All I can tell you is what another poster, "Midnight Growler", said in another forum:"AM2+ motherboards only take DDR2 ram but both cpus. AM3 motherboards only takes DDR3 ram and only AM3 cpus.AM3 processors work on AM2+ motherboards because they have both ddr2 and ddr3 controllers (for now).

No - the motherboard in question only supports AM3, and is designated for relatively low wattage (90W?). This is an AM3+ processor (The plus makes a difference.) and a rather high preformance chip with a TPD around 125W.

NO, do not use with an amd.... i just went through quite a bit of returns and rebuilding because of this...i purchased the titan, which rocks btw, but was bottlenecked by the amd opteron processor i purchased...i returned that and got an intel i7 and now it flys... i definitely recommend pairing this card with an intel processor to take full advantage of that cards speed..hope that helps

It does support the AM3+ as to fitting your chipset, no problem. If you run with both fans in place it will also extend above the closest ram slot so the taller ram chips will require removing the front fan should you decide to install ram in all four slots.

no... the motherboard you are asking about is made for AMD processors:- Support up to 95W Socket AM3+ processors- Support up to 95W Socket AM3 processors: AMD Phenom™ II X6 / X4 / X3 / X2 (except 920 / 940) / Athlon II X4 / X3 / X2 / Sempron processors- Supports 8-Core CPU- Supports UCC feature (Unlock CPU Core)- Supports AMD's Cool 'n' Quiet Technology- FSB 1000 MHz (2.0 GT/s)- Supports Untied Overclocking Technology- Supports Hyper-Transport Technology

of course if my friend this processor is the socket am2 + and am3 and your motherboard supports both socket

It does not support AMD FX processors because they are AM3+ socket and this board is FM2+. The AMD A8/ A10 line will work because they are FM2+ socket.

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

I'm pretty sure this is a typo as I currently have an FX-6100 on the board, which uses the am3+ socket

This board is am3+ so it supports all am3 out of the box, and this is Asus motherboard not gigabyte lol

No the AM3+ Socket is for the New AMD 81XX and 83XX series 8-Core CPUs, FX-9000 Series CPU/VPU must use an FX Motherboard.

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.

It will acept all am3+ cpu's. So any amd fx serieres processors minus the 9000 series due to voltage regulator limitations. I owned the fx 4350 and was able to overclock this little beast to 5gHz in a gigabyte motherboard. So a very good combo you are looking at.

Sorry for the delay. The e-mail initiating this conversation when to my non-main e-mail. Nope. This is an FM2 socket, which is incompatible with AM3+ chips (read: anything Phenom). You'd need to specifically buy an AMD APU (Specifically the AMD A#-5#### or A#-6#### series processor).Hope that makes sense.
2096529
Yes because AMD FX-9370 socket type is AM3+ while the motherboard is also AM3+ but there is a probably that the motherboard can't support the processor's power wattage.

It will work nicely with that board, it'll be clocked down to 2.0. From what I understand, only intel currently supports 3.0; AMD does not yet have any chipsets that support PCI 3, but you wont notice any difference in performance by using it in the PCI 2 slot. I have an AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera on a system paired with this card and couldn't be happier.
