Thx SUBMAN1 and sonar732
I really don't want to upgrade for just a mobo. If it turns out to be that I'll go to Gigabyte or search for same or equal mobo.
My reasoning is my rig played SHIII GWX20 & SH4 TM1.75 & RSRDC 1.75 + extra mods both at 100% realism and settings fairly high and most all boxes checked. FPS 20+ in harbor & convoy attack 90 to 100+ at sea.
No stutter,lock or CTD. Both just play great imho. As do these.
The only other games I play are IL2 1946, JANES WWII FIGHTERS, & some raceing games like GTR, GT Legends, RACE07 and my favorite F-1 2002. And once in awhile 688i H/K. And I was just about to get Shells of Fury when this happened.
So I don't really want or need to upgrade unless SH5 turns out to be a Game Rig Killer. :rotfl:
So I still have the 3.0 cpu to try out,btw he said I could keep it if it works and we'll work something out. " I'm crossing my fingers "
If it doesn't, The search is on for same or close mobo for above ststed reasons.
I'll post back after testing cpu. If my rig doesn't fire up then the search is on for same mobo.
At this time I want to Thank All for responding to this thread.
Your All #1 In My Book
