will this support an 8 core amd processor?

NO, the 8 core cpu has an AM3+ socket, this motherboard is specific to FM2/FM2+, i believe there is a version of this motherboard with the AM3+ socket, be aware that not all AM3+ motherboards can support the 8 core cpu's due to the 125w tdp. good luck!

yes it should...this mbd is rated for the FX processors and that includes the 8 core ones too...I run the same cpu...the video card should work as well, altho you should be sure the case you select has enough room for the video card...

According to the specifications from Asus, the processor is supported, but I have no personal experience with it.

I would have to say yes. I run an AMD 8 core with zero problems. Power to spare.

This chipset can handle up to the fx 8xxx processors. If your ever needing compatability issues, wikipedia, and pcpartpicker the website works wonders.

Good day. I have an Asus AMD motherboard with 8 gigs of ram, a FX-8320 Eight Core CPU, two AMD Radeon 7800 Series Video Cards and Windows 8.1 and I have no issues at all. Works rather well.

This is a quad core, not 8 core. Intel typically is a little ahead of AMD in terms of innovation, but at this price level, you probably won't be able to see a difference.

Not off this board. That processor is an AM2 and this board is for an AM3+ designed processor. You would need to get an AM3+ processor. Plus with the AM3+ you can go 8 core

it should, as it supports AMD 8 core processors, the only thing I would say is make sure it is on the correct/ approved list. make sure you have approved ram too, my motherboard kept crashing until I figured out the ram wasn't on the list. I have an FX-8350

No it wont, different slots, that motherboard only supports AM3, this processor requires AM3+

It should you just need to make sure that you motherboard can utilize 8 GB or RAM.

Yes, it is a quad core and it's should be able to handle both the CPU and Video Card with no problem.

No, it will not. Looking at the specs on the site it is not supported.http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc;=en&dlc;=en&docname;=c00906137#N116Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades: Athlon 64 X2 with Dual Core technology up to 5600+ (up to 89 watt) Athlon 64 less than 4000+ Sempron less than 4000+I would recommend picking up an AM3 micro-atx motherboard and upgrading to this CPU and unlocking the second core if you are willing to do some research.

This processor will. However, that board only supports AM2, AM2+ and AM3 socket CPU's. See manufacturers site for full list. http://www.asrock.com/mb/NVIDIA/N68C-S%20UCC/?cat=CPU

The Asus support site for this board will have a list of compatible processors. You'll need to add a video card if you pick a CPU without on-board graphics.
