" rel="nofollow - HI everybody I just bought a AMD FX 9590 and all 3 motherboards I own with the LATEST bios all say no to the new Processor . My rig usues the 990FX Killer/A/ASRK IT has the latest 1.60 bios and boots up just fine into the BLACK BIOS screen and tells me CPU not in CPU list. I tried this on one of my sons computer with a GYGABYTE MB , it currently has a FX 8 core running at 4.2 but when it sees this 4.7 it just panicks too and gives me the same this CPU not found. I was going to try my other son that has a MSI , but he's ALWAYS gaming with buddies in NY . I have had BAD luck with this ASROCK as far as overclocking went with my 6 core VISHERA running at 3.8. anyone have any ideas about a new bios ? let me know please. I left my email visible

" rel="nofollow - You're aware the 990FX Killer has been found to not support processors above 140w, right? Your now knowing that, let me see if I have my Killer setup files here somewhere on a backup. No promises though ........... |

" rel="nofollow - OK I was NOT aware of that. I'm getting too old for this. MB manufacturers make these boards 4 or 5 of them , and no where do they say , this item won't handle over so many watts. Well since this monster is a 220W guess I'm going to try and return it to Newegg, but somehow with all the money I have spent with them for the last 2o plus years I think they might not like it wish me luck. do the 8x series like the 8500 FX's work on this board ?? like 8530 ? that runs at 4.0 ? let me know if you know thanks

" rel="nofollow - This is the cpu support list http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/Fatal1ty%20990FX%20Killer/?cat=CPU A 83xx will work but...i quote Asrock "for cooling the CPU and its surrounding components, please install a CPU cooler with a top-down blowing design." |

I'll do one better and say it REQUIRES water-cooling. I have a 990FX Extreme9/FX9590 and the processor, rated at 220W, will run much higher. The 9590 is a toasty chip. For fun I posted some 5GHz screenies here in the Achievements thread, doing 5.0GHz on all eight cores. |
