Allan Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hello Welcome Bro!! 1 - I recommend purchasing an Intel CPU, is much more compatible. For me the best is IvyBridge is more simple, now if you want to have savings and performance buy Haswell check out this CPU: http://ark.intel.com/products/65523 2 - This video is OOB, 100%. 3 - see another motherboard for Intel CPU. look: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8H77M_PRO/ this motherboard is very compatible. the others is very good.
