Hello What is the diference between asrock "970 Extreme3" and "970 Extreme3 R2"?
1421735
Asrock 970 Extreme31) Has core locker.2) Not really design for windows 8 but works OK with it.Asrock 970 Extreme3 R2.01) Doesn't have core locker.2) Designed for windows 8.Also:One BIG difference between the two is that R2.0 has USB 3.0 headers, whereas the R1.0 only has USB 2.0 headers. The 970 Extreme3 R2 is the newest of the two motherboards FTI.

The difference with this card and normal card is the dual bios. You can have 1 bios set for OC and the other as fail safe. And this card is also clocked higher then the regular card as well. Great performance from this card

DDR3. I have seen some boards with dual compatibility for ddr2 and 3, but this also depends on the processor you're using. Many processors cannot access both, but there certainly are exceptions.

The current BIOS version is F8. I got my board on 12/1/14 and the BIOS was current.

I do not own the other motherboards to compare but I had to return ARRock 990FX Extreme4 because it did not post.

Correct, one is Atheros and one is Intel. I had trouble installing the Intel driver on Windows Server 2012, but finally found a way. The Atheros one worked just fine.

MSI 970A-G46. It'a a decent and inexpensive board. I'm using it in the same case as we speak. It has overclocking capabilities as well as Crossfire/SLI compatability at full x8 speed whenever you want to upgrade.

Would this GPU be compatible on an ASRock 970 EXTREME3 AMD 970 & SB950 ATX DDR3 800 AMD - AM3+ Motherboard?

Barely any difference. The Base Clock differences are 1046 MHz vs. 1072 MHz, and Boost Clock of 1111 vs. 1137. That's pretty much it except for the extra fan. You can still only SLI connect a total of two of these cards if that's of any interest to you. For space and cooling efficiency, I'd opt for a dual GPU board instead. It will save you a ton of room in your tower. These cards are beasts, but effective.

Both. I have an AMD based motherboard. Don't buy this just because it's a cheap two gigabyte RAM. Go look if it's compatable with your motherboard. I bought this RAM because my motherboard needed this specific type of RAM and thankfully, it worked.

The Gigabyte support page shows the latest bios release, as of 02-05-14, as version F4b (this is a beta release)Version F3 was released on 01-09-14Version F2 was released on 12-16-13Version F1 was released on 09-06-13, this was the First release So it you know when your board was manufactured you should be able to determine the bios version.Hope this helps.

It is 1155. They just show other similar boards and even though this is the older socket type it's still compared to the newer 1150

I don't recall...but I bought mine a few months back and it worked immediately with the AMD A10-7850K chip. I wouldn't worry about compatibility at this point. The old product is most likely pushed through. GREAT MOBO.

Both boards are awesome, and come from solid manufacturers. RMA policies for both are great (albeit slow sometimes). It really boils down to price and application. The GA board has 6x SATA connectors and WiFi while the Asus has 4x SATA connectors and no WiFi. The Gigabyte also has Dual LAN (one Intel, one Atheros). The Asus supports DDR3 3200 while the Gigabyte only supports DDR3 3100. The Asus appears to have better heatsinks on the power devices which is typically better for overclocking. The Asus also has an M.2 slot, which isn't a big deal unless you really plan on using it. When I built my rig I went with the Gigabyte for its feature-set and price point and couldn't be happier.

My Friend, I cannot give you that answer because I've used it in a complete different motherboard. However, if you call Asus Costumer Service at: (812) 282-2787, Monday - Friday, 5:30AM - 9:00PM PST; Saturday - Sunday, 6:00AM - 3:00PM PST, I'm sure that they'll definitely give you the best answer anyone else can ever give you. I hope that my advice helped you.​

According to CPU-Z, the exact name and model is: ASRockB75M-DGS. I believe this is it: http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/B75M-DGS/

i didnt test my mobo with the fx8350, am still having a phenom II 955, my board had 13.2 BIOS version, at the msi forum it said that it work good with the 8350 but this BIOS version it's only stable with win8. When i had win7 ultimate 64, i had crash many times with it
