Processor and memory compatibility can give one sleepless nights when trying to plan a new system, but generally the latest chipset from a company like AMD will support its latest processor. Sadly this cannot be said for the AMD 890GX-based Biostar TA890GXE, which delivered only ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) errors when paired with an AMD six core chip

Re: Biostar TA890GXE review
Probably just needs a BIOS update, so no big deal?
Re: Biostar TA890GXE review
Yeah, did you update the BIOS? This is my motherboard by the way. I would hate it if I wouldn't be able to upgrade later on.
Edit: Which I see you did and was eventually quite impressed by it. Cool.
