Hello, I'm tempted to buy a processor (AMD A8 7600 Quad Core) to make a slight upgrade on my computer, staying with the following configuration:

 Processor : AMD A8 7600 
Motherboard : ASRock FM2A55M-VG3+ 
Memory : KVR1333D3N9/4G - 4GB DDR3 1333 

I was seeing the list of compatible memories with the motherboard( http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A55M-VG3+/?cat=Memory ) and not found that my memory model (KVR1333D3N9/4G), will be that I will have a problem?

Memory support lists are often not all-encompassing, meaning, if you have memory that is NOT on the list, it may, indeed, work.

Your desired processor supports 2133. You could give it a shot and see if it works. It may well.

If not, be prepared to acquire new memory. The memory you have (1333), may well work.

I'm not an expert, but these are my thoughts.

Unfortunately, according to the CPU List for your board that particular CPU isn't supported. Or so it says. Here, I'd suggest you contact ASRock and inquire. I believe it is and it's just a matter of ASRock not having updated the list to reflect so. Best to check FIRST though.


Below is where you'll want to go to discover if that Kingston Value RAM is compatible.

You sure?

On the ASRock site, this processor is shown on the list --- is this not it?:

FM2+A8AD7600YBI44JA

Wow. Teach me to copy and past a p/n in the wee hours.

Yes, the A8-7600 IS supported.


Sorry for that oversight fellas. I somehow copied the boxed p/n, AD7600YBJABOX , instead of the CPU itself. And again, that's why I couldn't for the like of me figure out WHY I wasn't seeing that 7600 show up in the list when I replied in my first post "I believe it is and it's just a matter of ASRock not having updated the list to reflect so. Best to check FIRST though."


Thanks for holding my hand to the fire and making take a second look.


My sincerest apologies to all.
