Hi,
I've just bought a Bulldozer 8 core CPU for my 890GM motherboard which has been running an X6 Phenom II CPU for the past year.
Bulldozer is to be listed as compatible in the support list.
The BIOS has been updated to V1.60 (latest one) and supposedly it has been compatible with the Bulldozer since V1.50 (clip below).
ASRock > Products > 890GM Pro3 R2.0 > CPU Support List
This CPU has part # FD8120FRGUBOX
The CPU goes in the socket OK and the fan on the CPU starts up OK... but there is no boot screen.
The board shuts down if you hold the power button down for 5 seconds... but that's all.
I tried resetting the BIOS to default settings but it didn't make any difference.
Anyone got some ideas?
:-)
