Will a Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H motherboard work with my Phenom processor?

bamim2 · Oct 8, 2013

I have a Phenom CPU from 2006. The motherboard & PSU burnt on the system it was in, so I'm trying to find a replacement Motherboard for it & am (of course) having trouble. EVERYTHING I can find about the Phenom CPU is about the II, X2, X3, X4 etc & nothing is about the plain old Phenom. Even when I do a search on the AMD site for my CPU part number, I get nothing. Does anybody know if a Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H motherboard work with my Phenom processor?

Thank you in advance for any help I can get.

MA785GM-LE from ASRock seems to support, so I imagine that one from Gigabyte with the same chipset will as well. Original Phenom was an AM2 chip and these are the onl boards I can find that might support it at all.

Never upgraded to it myself because it would have been sort of a downgrade. The dual core Athlon X2 at the time had higher clock speeds. Phenom II was when it started to make sense.

Yes, that board does support the original Phenom.

Thank you. I had already gone to that link, but couldn't really tell if it did or didn't support my CPU. I always like to get a second opinion when I'm not sure (& even sometimes when I am sure). Thank you for the help! I'm off to purchase the board & get that system back in the action.
