Hi, I Am Thinking To Update My Gaming Rig.

I am thinking to buy AMD 8-Core Processor [Which Is Named "AMD Bulldozer" I Think]

I Have :-

2*2GB = 4GB Crossair Ram
500 GB * 2 = 1TB HDD
Gigabyte GA-785GMT-USB3 Motherboard [ Upgraded To Bios Ver F4c ]
ATI Raedon HD 5770 1GB-DDR5 Graphics Card
700W Cooler Master Silent Pro SMPS


Please Tell Me Please Will My "Gigabyte GA-785GMT-USB3" Motherboard Support 8-Core AMD Processors , If Yes Which Processor Model Is Best To Buy For Gaming And Huge Multitasking.

Also Please Tell When Will "8-Core AMD Processors" Will Arrive In INDIA .

It does not support AMD Bulldozer (FX), though the general agreement would have been that you'd be better off upgrading to a AMD Phenom II X6 for gaming (than the FX range), which your board does support.

A bit of googling found:

PS - There really isn't any need to capitalise the first letter of every word in almost every sentence :)

Unless I'm mistaken you've asked this same question on tomshardware.com tonight, in which I answered your question and provided a link proving it's not compatible.
