Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 with AMD Visheron CPU's

[TioVel]

I'm thinking of building a new computer for my self I could use some help.
Will this Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 motherboard be compatible with the coming AMD Visheron CPU's??

Thanks in advance! =)

Well, it's Vishera, but since it will be AM3+, I assume it should work with that mobo, with a BIOS update (whenever one is released).

do you mean vishera? if yes, you will have to check asus' motherboard section.
when piledriver cpus become available, check you motherboard's cpu support list page. if asus lets vishera cpus to run on older motherboards, they will issue a bios update. for example -

notice that newer fx cpus require a bios update.

Yes I meant Vishera, sry about that.
After reading some more about these upcoming processors I decided to buy a motherboard with 9xx chipset. Because it will get that BIOS update.
Thanks for the answers though!

^^ depends on what you want to do with the cpu, the rest of your pc config and other factors.
