Does the AMD970A motherboard support the AMD bulldozer eight core CPU? Is the CPu interface supported by AM3+?
The 970 chipset certainly supports the eight core bulldozerAM3+ interface motherboard is not necessarily, and some power supply design support only to 95W, 125W can not guarantee the stable operation of eight nuclear bulldozers
In fact, the AMD processor differs from the Intel in that the memory controller is not on the motherboard, so it is not very strong for the chipset. Therefore, 770870 and 970 on the same processor, test scores are almost, practical, but also feel no difference.Currently buy 970A motherboard, cost-effective. It was, after all, the first generation of bulldozers, not to mention bulldozers. When you need to change a bulldozer, a better motherboard than 970A will become popular. And the bulldozers will have the next generation... Recommended to buy ten powered 870A motherboard, the high price is the Gigabyte rev3.1 and 870A-UD3 rev3.1 870UD3P. Are Liubaijishi, the difference is that the former is USB2.0, and cancel the IDE floppy disk interface. AM3+, memory support to DDR3 2133. This will change the first generation of bulldozers (which should be cheaper) and higher memory, and then use it for a while and then replace it with new ones.
Comrade Mars on the first floor, right? The spaceship hasn't been put in place yet The 970A motherboard is the AM3 interface, your own DIY?970 chipset is equipped with FX bulldozer, the interface is all AM3+. Landlord, you remember, the motherboard socket is black, you can, and AM3 are white. For example, now Gigabyte's non 970A motherboard, including the nVidia520 chipset, AMD's 770870880G, and all rev3.1 versions are socket black, that is, AM3+, these boards can also support FX bulldozers.If you buy a line (MSI, gigabyte, ASUS) and second-line (Hua Qing) 970A motherboard, it definitely supports 8 nuclear bulldozers, design and strength there, are supporting 125W +. For example, Gigabyte 870A-USB3L, do not see is sold only 550 of the narrow board, 5 phase power supply, but the power supply part is strengthened, and 140W is no problem. I use the Yilong II X4 955 (3.2G) to 4.1G, run the "Crysis 2" estimate of the peak power of 140W, but OK.However, the 5 phase power supply on the 140W processor, inductors are very hot, I put a heat sink. I also have Gigabyte 770T-UD3P, 10 phase power supply, that is, the temperature. After all, the number of inductors and field transistors doubled and diverted. 12 If you want to change the bulldozer or nuclear Yilong II overclocking (now popular play is to buy package of 6 core Athlon II X4 640 II X6 1450T, a Yilong), it is recommended to buy the 10 phase power supply (also called the 8+2 phase).
