GIGABYTE GA-MA790XT-UD4P and C3 stepping compatibility
I am preparing to make the jump to DD3 and a better chipset. After reading the AM3 Motherboard Buyers Guide posted on this forum I decided to go with the Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4P

Does anybody have experience using an AMD Phenom II X4 965BE (C3) with this motherboard out of the box? I need to upgrade my processor to AM3 and I don't want to downgrade so that only leaves two choices, the 955BE or the 965BE (preference).
My concern is compatibility with an older bios. I don't have another AM3 processor so I need to be able to get the computer running to flash to the newest bios. Is it even compatible with the C3 965 at all? I checked the website and it has support for the C2 965 and the C3 945 but I don't see the C3 965.
Any information or personal experience anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated. I just want to make sure I get a compatible processor for this motherboard. Thanks.
