" rel="nofollow - Hello,
The AD845XACKASBX is not mentionned in www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A88X Extreme4+/index.fr.asp?cat=CPU AD845XACKASBX nor http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A88X%20Pro3+/?cat=CPU.
Do you know if this is a forgetting or if its CPU will be supported ?

If the C6 mode work correctly on these motherboard nowadays ?
Thanks.

Regards.

" rel="nofollow - Yes. It is fully supported since BIOS 3.90.

The AD845XACKASBX you list is the retail boxed p/n and the CPU Support List only uses the OEM/tray p/n's.

CPU-World states the tray p/n as AD845XACI43KA, which shows full support on your MB since BIOS 3.90 on the below page
http://asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A88X%20Extreme6+/index.us.asp?cat=CPU

BUT, bear in mind the two "gotchyas' concerning Carrizo cpus on A88X MBs which can be found at the top of the above CPU Support List link I provided:

* Some of AMD CPU (i.e AMD Athlon/Sempron family CPU) does not have integrated graphics processor. When this kind of CPU is installed, a discrete VGA card is required.
¤ If you install Carrizo CPU, system only supports PCIE2 GEN3 x8 due to CPU limitation.

1. The 845(all Carrizo?) does not have an iGPU so a video card is req'd.
2. Again ""¤ If you install Carrizo CPU, system only supports PCIE2 GEN3 x8 due to CPU limitation."" as stated at the top of the Support list

HTH,
