Can I run this processor with this mobo ? ASUS M5A78L-M LX PLUS AM3+ AMD 760G Micro ATX AMD Motherboard Also running off of a 500w psu ?

Yes, this CPU is an AM3 socket. Also a 500 watt PSU will be fine as long as you aren't trying to run SLI or something like that on your GPU. I recommend at least getting an 80+ bronze rated PSU.
793421
Yes, the answer is in the name (AM3+). AM3+ is the socket type of the current AMD FX models including the FX 4350.

you should be fine as long as you arent planning on running a super high end graphics card with it because 500w might be a little bit low for some of the major graphics cards. but if you're just gonna run something like a 6850 or something you should be just fine. hope this helps

95w support on older motherboards is imposible if is am2+ otherwise new mobos support 95 and 120w remember check the cpu compatibility specs and if the bridge connector for pwa is about 4 or 8

Motherboard on mine. I have a Asus Rampage IV Formula. But If your motherboard is short. It could easily connect to a psu.

Yes. I have a Asus GeForce 780 which pulls more power then the 760 and it has no problem powering my system.

We've purchased several of these mobo's to run with AMD A8-5600K APU 3.6Ghz Processor AD560KWOHJBOX. Never had an issue until this one.

You should be able to run it just fine with a 600W PSU. If you are going to upgrade in the future, say crossfire, then you should look into upgrading to a 750W or 800W PSU.

You can use a 650w psu or any other over the 500w. Just be sure that you have an available 4pin power supply cable to connect the graphic card 6 pins cable.

Your motherboard is limited to a 95 Watt CPU so you would require this CPU Phenom II 945 AMD Phenom II X4 945 Deneb 3.0 GHz 4x512 KB L2 Cache Socket AM3 95W Quad-Core Processor - Retail HDX945WFGMBOX ..

I'm using it in this ASUS M5A78L-M LX PLUS AM3+ AMD 760G Micro ATX AMD Motherboard Has served me well since the beginning of November anyway :D

The manual I have said that AM3+ is supported, but with a note that stated a 95W maximum. The best thing to do is to go to http://www.asrock.com for the most up to date information. You'll need to pay attention to the power supply too with any powerful CPUs.

It should be fine, but just. Im running an i52500@3.7 and my 780@1ghz with a Corsair AX750.. My system consumes around 450w at full load. You may want to try it out first and then upgrade your Psu if you need to, specially if you are going to OC. Which I assume you will. But again, it should be fine to be honest. Have you simulated your power consumption online?

according to the MSI website you should be good.. http://us.msi.com/support/mb/760GMP23_FX.html#support-cpu

It should be compatible. Both the board and the CPU use AM3+ socket. For the incompatibility alert, did you check that you have enough power from the PSU?
1446086
Yes. I am running it just fine off a 650W PS. Make sure its a decent quality Power supply though.

Asrock doesn't list that CPU as supported on their website. http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970%20Extreme3/?cat=CPU It might not be supported because of the high wattage on that CPU (220W). Other FX models that are 125W and 95W are supported though with a bios update.*edit* Actually looking under specifications this motherboard is only rated up to 140W so you would need a lower powered CPU for this motherboard. http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970%20Extreme3/?cat=Specifications

Yes, it's am3+ compatible, but this mobo won't perform as good as a true am3+ mobo. This is just an old am3 mobo with an updated bios so that it can run am3+ What I recommend you is to buy a truly am3+, non 760g

Hmm... I think a 500W PSU would be ok, but are you overclocking the CPU? If so, then I would recommend checking the necessary wattage for the GPU. I'm using a 750W PSU, but I think other people have used less. I would research this further since I'm not 100% sure 500W would suffice. I'm sorry if I couldn't be more helpful.
