Is this processor compatible with following motherboard?

*AMD Phenom II X4 955BE Rev. C3, AM2+/AM3, 3.2GHz, 8MB, BOX

*Asus M5A87, AM3+, AMD 870, DDR3, Core Unlockerhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131734

go to details and in socket type it should tell u. i would tell u yes or no..but i dint get a glance at ur processor. correcting my mistake after further analysis if i am looking at the right mobo. yes it should be ABLE to support ur proccessor.The fact that motherboard has AM3+ and processor is AM3 (without +)is what made unsure.let me check further on that give me a few minutes ill respond back to SEE if there would be a problem with the mobo and ur socket on the processor
after more analysis the fact that your mobo. is am3+ means its supports new processors along with the old ONES, in simple terms your processor is still supported by ur mobo.Thanks for confirmation.Quote from: Madoc Comadrin on May 31, 2011, 02:35:12 PM
