This motherboard works flawless for being an older model you can build a pretty solid pc using the lga 2011 socket if ur on a budget this is a great option for a mid tier gaming rig
Both cpus work! the first one i installed had some trouble keeping my pc on after installing it, however the second one seemed to work a little better and hasnt shut my pc off yet. I shouldnt need to update the bios because my current motherboard says it has the latest bios for this cpu but I cant complain although they are older cpus they still work and its way better than what i previously had. Thank you for the awsome deal!
