Will this work with sandy bridge e? Like 3970x without bios flash?

It has a three positions selector switch that allows you to select the proper BIOS for your processor. It is explained in the setup manual when you install the motherboard. there is also an update for the Sandy Bridge E BIOS on EVGA after you install your motherboard I would recommend installing it.

Yes, it did it for me out of the box, and i have the 3970X also. I recommend to flash the Bios anyway.

Yes it will, its short enough to clear your southbridge heatsink. Its a grest card for the price and has been running smooth for me

According to the specs, yes - but you will want to check to make sure that you have bios version 1201 or higher otherwise you may need to flash the current bios version. disclaimer: I haven't run an 8300 on it. I have run a 6300 (which is also 95W) and a Deneb 965 (125W) without any issues. I've updated the board, and I simply don't remember what version of the bios shipped with mine. Bios 1201 isn't new, so I would guess you'll be fine and won't need to update it, but obviously that's just a guess.

Yes it should work without any problems just make sure enable the XMP profile in the bios so it runs at it's rated speed

To the best of my knowledge yes. Reason I say this is USB boot to flash bios works fine

What I see on the box says it is compatible with 3.0 motherboard, which means it's backward compatible. Should be just fine pci-e 2.0.

It is recommended to download the latest BIOS, and latest Drivers. It works for me, but flash the BIOS !

No, this is AMD CPU based MB. Supports the new 4-8 core processors. It does not have a socket that supports Sandy Bridge or Intel K processors.

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.

It should, provided that you have an open PCIe slot. If you are using it with your boot drive, be sure to configure the BIOS to use it in that manner.

Alot of these cards are mostly compatible with certain speed specifications, and i am guessing the mo-board is not on the same level... Go to asus and look for upgrades on your model and then Google that specific item and chips to match... I have put this card in 4 different cases from custom to hp, and dell... All different generations and all were plug and play on AMD or Intel

don't worry about the motherboard, just worry about buying the right bridge from the evga website, or call them and give them your style of card and ask which 1 fits

It has a PCI-E 16x slot. I think it's like revision 1.0 so it won't run very fast, but it should work. It has 4 RAM slots? I don't know about channels on this board, but I think i got it to run with two unmatched pairs of 2GB RAM, totaling 8GB. Here is the manual:https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/share?s=nwl9NMVLTEMu3Daqdv5mEI

You should refer to the ASUS website support section for that answer. You will need to know the model and version number for your mobo.

Why would you? Nobody flashes bios with floppies anymore, unless u have old files.. then just buy an adapter. Front panel slots are obsolete. U can download everything now. Many case makers aren't even including them now, I got this case for size and water cooling.

Gigabyte HybridEFI is the worst EFI implementation anywhere, hands down. I would avoid buying a new Gigabyte board with "dual bios" an "hybrid EFI" for that reason alone. It'll work ok if you only run a single install of Windows and only use the default setup, but anything else is asking for trouble.Get the Asus.

Not familiar with that model, but as long as you have an available PCI-E port, it should work. You should be more concerned about the OS you are going to use this on, versus the hardware you are planning on plugging into.
