GA-MA790FXT-UD5P / GA-890FXA-UD5
Last response: in Components
Currently have a GA-MA790FXT-UD5P motherboard with a Phenom IIx4 965BE CPU. I would like to get the new Phenom IIx6 1090TBE CPU. What I would like to know is should I upgrade my MB at the same time to this board GA-890FXA-UD5. I do some encoding, gaming etc...

Hi newcomer and welcome to the Tom's hardware forum.
U have a very solid mobo that support the X6 1090T BE with a BIOS update, so, u don't need upgrade ur mobo to a $180 mobo if with ur current mobo u can have a very similar performance that with the new 890FXA-UD5.
Save ur money or buy another different thing like a SSD or another GPU for Crossfire, those a upgrades that can add more performance to ur rig.
