ABit At8 and Athlon FX60

[Rek19841]

I am thinking of putting together a new system. Was looking at getting the new AT8 Motherboard along with the FX-60 processore. I looked on Abits site to see if they were compatible, but could find no info.

Does anyone know if the Fx-60 processor works with the Abit AT8 straight out of the box? There are no bios or driver updates available for the AT8 motherboard, so just want to be sure I won't run into a problem.

If anyone has any info on this, it would be much appreciated!

Youre really gonna buy a fx-60? No offense but, what a waste of money. Get an opteron single or dual core and oc to 2.5-2.9ghz. Wouldnt cost more than $200-$300.

But to answer your question, if that mobo doesnt have a bios update yet, im sure it will soon to support it. Id email abit to make sure. I dont see why it wouldnt, its a new motherboard.... It would be pretty dumb of abit to release a new 939 mobo that doesnt support the latest processors.

I'm thinking about getting this Abit AT8 too. I don't see any review for it so I'm still considering.

Yeah its new so, probably have to wait for sites to do some reviews on it.

ditto.. I've been thinking about replacing my eVGA nf41 mobo with it. Hope to see some reviews soon. (and I hope they have better overclocking options and voltages than the ASUS A8R-MVP !!!)
