I have orederd an
AMD A10-Series AD580KWOHJBOX Quad-Core A10-5800K APU. Now I'm looking for a good motherboard in the $100-130 rang to put this APU on. I was thinking of going with a full ATX board. My plan for this system is to use it for lite gaming to start out but upgrade if I like what I'm doing. I'm open to ideas and suggestions. Thanks

Yes you can install a Kaveri CPU given that its has the BIOS that supports it. If the board doesn't come with the latest BIOS, you wouldn't even POST if you install a Kaveri cpu therefore you can't update the BIOS in any way.

Hey just had a quick question, this board will fit an FM2 or FM2+ APU, is that correct, I could fit one or the other into the board?

Hey hope you don't mind but I have another question for you. I checked the list of supported CPU's for the A88x-pro on the Asus website. My specific model number isn't listed as one that this board will support. There is a model number very close to mine but doesn't match. Could my APU still fit?

Thanks
