can i use this with the new a10-7xxx cpu? i dont feel like buying a whole new mobo and i really want to upgrade :D

Socket: FM2CPU (Max Support) AMD A10 AND A8 AND A6 AND A4 -seriesDDR3 Memory DDR3 1066/1333/1600/1866/2133*/2400*(OC*)Max Memory (GB) 64 ×4 Means only four pieces 16GB×4= 64GB

No. The new AMD A10-7xxx apu is on the new FM2+ architecture. It's incompatible with the FM2 socket.
1386505
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

My question to you is what are you upgrading from? because I have this mobo with an A10-5800K and it works like a champ.

No. Your motherboard is too old. That board support core 2 duo CPUs and core 2 quad cpu.To use this Pentium you would need a Z97 motherboard to take full advantage of the features. You would also have to get ddr3 ram for for the Z97 motherboard. As your older board is just ddr2.

I see that same thing in my task manager. I'm not sure, I do know for sure that this motherboard has custom soldered on 4gb of RAM in dual channel configuration and zero sodimm slots period. So, you can not upgrade. It is likely the processor and chipset are able to support another slot, if there were one. Asus has clearly really customized this machine to cram everything in here.

Nope. That motherboard is older, and it has a different socket. Look up motherboards that have an AM3+ socket in order for this CPU to work.

Hi, that CPU worked with that main PCB. So far all of my system work well. ThanksTung

I know some of the old Asus boards can be upgraded in the bios to use this chip. I'm not sure if mine does, its the M3N78 Pro. On the Asus website it says the M3N78-VN does and I figure mine should be able to since it's a very simular model. I'll have to do more research.

if you check the gigabyte website and lookup the motherboard there is an actual list. it updates periodically. im running a 3.6 ghz 8 core and thinking about upgrading to a 5 ghz 8 core at the moment. I think that a new motherboard would work faster, but I could still run it, although a newer case a super full tower (bigger than an 9 5 1/4" bays tower) would fit correctly because of the heatsink and dual liquid cool fans that I have space requirement is max. a liquid cooled system entirely would work nicely with a larger case than antec gamer 900. the thing with the motherboard isn't only what you can upgrade it to but can it all fit and work optimally correctly together. if you check the gigabyte website and lookup the motherboard there is an actual list. it updates periodically. im running a 3.6 ghz 8 core and thinking about upgrading to a 5 ghz 8 core at the moment.

I was in the same position as you. It did not come with the most recent bios but it actually worked with the i7-4790k. You should be fine. If this is for a Hackintosh, I would he wary of this board as mine keeps freezing when I have more than 8gb of ram and the built in Bluetooth and wifi caused me a bunch of problems. Otherwise it is a great board.

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.

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.

I don't think so... the A10 is socket type FM2 where the this board is a FM1 socket. They have different pin holes so it will not fit. Best bet is to find a board that specifically states that it supports the A10 or socket FM2.

Yes you can. But after upgrading it if it not work, you'll need to upgrade the Bios. Then you good to go.

Yes, according to the support website linked below. However, it requires a later BIOS version than what may be currently on your board. You may have to flash the BIOS to use it.http://goo.gl/7108ON

Yes you can use any CPU the new CPUs use am3+ socket but old ones are only am3 so this motherboard can handle both
719537
Yes that's compatible. For future reference, when you buy a CPU, check the socket type. Your CPU is an LGA 1150. So you have to buy LGA 1150 board. This is one of them

It depends what bios comes installed with the mb. I would suggest that you identify which Bios is needed for the a10-7850 and determine whether the mb you purchase already has that bios installed. If not you will need another cpu to bring it up to date or update the bios via usb.

Yes, you can use that motherboard with this CPU. It's an AM3+ socket CPU and the motherboard has that socket type. Gigabyte makes good mobos, as well.
