I know that Am3 CPU's are backwards compatible but the 955 BE is not listed on the supported CPU's list on my Motherboard. Just wondering if anyone knows if I could just flash my BIOS and use the new 955 BE with my board in my sig and the ram that I have or if I would have to purchase an AM3 board as well. The thing is Im not sure if any board makers have updated their CPU support lists since even the AM3 boards don't say they support it.
I really don't have a problem buying a new board and actually plan on it but I found a 955 BE used for 185 and want to be able to test it before buying. As long as I can get it to boot in my board I will be ordering an AM3 board but like I said I just want to test it first.
