Hello everyone. Sorry for my ill English. My native language is not English. 
Let's say I am buying this CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 760K SFM2
and now i am looking for FM2 motherboard...
So let's say I have found this board whitin my price range: Gigabyte - GA-F2A75M-HD2 (rev. 1.0)
The problem is that on gigabyte page it's say that you need BIOS F5b to be compatible whit this cpu.... But rev 1 comes whit BIOS F2(??????)
So what happens next if i have bouth of thees components? Will they work? Will they not? And if not then what should(could) i do?
In this case the revision number is awayable but most retailers(in My country) don't show that informatinon(and don't want to say when called). So i know what i'm getting.. but in general how to be sure witch rev am I getting (asside from calling retalier)
or does it realy metter?? Just buy " them"(meaning FM2 cpu and FM2 MB, or LGA 1155 cpu and LGa 1155 MB.. etc) stick'em together and everything will work???
p.s. Side question. Witch in general is better to buy first(in what order?) (cpu, MB, GPU, etc) when building a rigg?
