Hello,
I am looking to upgrade from my older AM3+ motherboard to the only AM3+ (ish) compatible with crossfire, the MSI 890GXM-G65. I found out that to use an AM3+ CPU (in my case the FX-6300) on an AM3 board you need to update the BIOS. Questions:
1. How I would go about updating the BIOS?
2. Will I even be able to enter the BIOS with this CPU?
3. On the 890GXM-G65's webpage (http://us.msi.com/product/mb/890GXM-G65.html#/?div=CPUSupport) it says it supports the FX-6200. Does this mean it could support the newer FX-6300?
Thanks in advance!
