ECS doesn't have the cpu listed on their compatibility list and intel does? What do you guys think?
 
Solution
If it's not on the ECS CPU Support list, then I wouldn't question that. Intel may state that a processor is compatible with a specific CPU socket or motherboard chipset, but it's up to the motherboard manufacturer to ensure compatibility through BIOS updates. If a motherboard manufacturer doesn't update their BIOS to provide compatibility with a specific CPU, it's not wise to assume it's compatible.

Okay I got this motherboard, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130731&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

It doesn't have a 3.0 usb headers but my case does? My case also has a usb 3.0 header plug that attached to the front of the case, will I be able to plug the usb 3.0 header into the motherboard's 2.o headers?
 


Yes the back usbs will function as normal. The USB headers on the motherboards affect your front usb ports.
 
So no special wires to plug into my motherboard to make the usb 2.0 and 3.0 ports on the motherboard to work right? all I have to do is install the motherboard onto my pc and install all other pc components (Graphics cards, ram etc.) and it will work with no wires needed?
