Phenom II on am2+ Mobo
Hey everyone,
I'm looking for a processor to replace my current Athlon X2 6000+. The latest BIOS update(5001) for my motherboard, an ASUS M2A-VM (non-HDMI), offers support for am3 CPUs.
Now I know that the am3 Phenom II X4 945 is supported as well as am2+ Phenom II processors, like the 920/940.
My question is: will the 955 work on my mobo? I've seen some tests in which the 955 works, but runs at 800mHz. However these were all done before the release of the 5001 BIOS, which is the first BIOS update that offers official support for am3 processors.
Thanks!
