You state the terminals are F2 and the reviews say they are F1. Which are they? F1 or F2?

It is a crap shoot. If you order this you will sometimes get a 4.5ah battery with F1 terminals and sometimes get a 5ah battery with F2 terminals.

Norn The termnals are standard 1/4 inch male spade. They do not have termnals like on a motercycle battery. They are the type that a female spade will slip on them. At least the one that I got did.Montey Davis

I received a battery with two F2 terminals. Thankfully, included in the box was a pair of F2-to-F1 Step-Down terminal adapters, which I then used in my system.

The battery I just received DOES NOT have F2 terminals. It has F1 terminals - 3/16" wide. I will be sending this one back.

The negative terminal was an F1 and the positive was an F2. My garage door opener clips were both F1 so I had to reduce the terminal to fit an Fi clip.

I ordered this battery on August 19, 2014. The terminals are bigger than the existing battery I was replacing. I contacted the seller on amazon and was informed I could not return this item since it was a battery.

I would go for a FM2 chip. FM1 is dead and this CPU is OK, nothing special.

Not really a fix, But you push F2 on boot up and go in setup and go to the Advanced tab and look under "Adapter Warnings" and disable it by hitting enter and down and enter again, Then hit F10 then enter, It will disable that annoying message when you start it up. It used to pop up on mine but I disabled the warning and have had no issues, Even works as good as the original if not better because this replacement held up longer then the original

Well, I do not now what you mean by "fm2".My motherboard is ASUS Z87-PLUS and this cooler suite well. But you should use memory card without extra large radiator panels. I used Kingston KHX1600C10D3B1/8G.

S., been tearing my hair out trying to figure out which one to buy. Really appreciate the info you posted - thanks for your assessment. Will get the F7, if not the F6.

I think it only works in FM1. See for instance the picture in the page http://www.techpowerup.com/mobile/172513/comments.html which shows clearly that the pin grid of FM1 and FM2 are different (see the voids near the center of both are different). So the CPUs for each platform cannot be inserted in the "wrong" socket.

Yes. Sockets FM1 & FM2 are treated the same with respect to CPU coolers. I'm currently using this M4 with an FM2 socket. Everything is good.

Sorry for the late response . I see others already answered. I may have purchased an FM1,but I have another board mine should work in. I haven't had much time lately haven't assemble yet.

Yes you can tell the difference. The f7 is bigger and the color and shape is different.

Daniel: please read the review I wrote on December 6 2011 "Excellent electronic ballast for one F40/F34 T12". It describes the slight difference in wiring that I encountered on that installation and the wiring conventions I followed. Perhaps it will help.

it's 2 of the function keys along the top row. hold down "fn" key at the bottom and press and release each function key until you find the right one for your computer

Not normal at all. Several issues can cause this, i.e. bad grounding, poor shielding, RFI or EMI from nearby devices/outlets/power wires, faulty amplifier, etc. I personally have 2 F12's and have sold several more to customers and have never had an issue with them.

the terminals are thin flat blades. The width of each terminal is 3/16 (I guess that means it's F1).

Look at the Socket for the Processor (FM2+) and look at the Socket the Motherboard has, If they are the same then they are compatible.

Function keys = yes; F1..F12 = no. There is a row of keys above the number keys with various function icons. I don't think I've ever used them or thought much about them.

This battery uses F2 connectors, about 1/4 inch wide. If you need F1, there are adaptors available for about a buck.

ok no to:AMD Fx 8350 (its a fm3) as apposed to what the mother board is designed for fm2+/2. yes to everything else
