You can go on pcpartpicker.com and virtually create your own PC and it will tell you everything you need to know, including part compatibility. I checked and it says "Some AMD 970 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Vishera CPUs". So it should work with a BIOS update. I believe you may be good, but I'm not 100% sure.

are you sure you arent misreading it? they may look similar, depending the writing type. i cant see any ''i'' version in gigabytes site!

download speccy and check your bios version there. if it is actually an i version you can always update to the latest one.!

or am I missing something ?? we discussed this on his other thread ... only thing I figure if there was one it was removed for some reason and they don't usually do that unless they found something bad wrong with it and had to remove it ??
