I came accross this on the 'bay

GA-F2A78M-D3H Revision 4.0

According to the gigabyte website this is what it says

AMD Athlon X4 860K 3700MHz 1MBx4 N/A N/A Kaveri 28nm A1 95W FA

Does that mean if i get this 4.0 board itll run my 860k with no flashing needed?

This is my build the now minus the board (all parts bought and here)


CPU: AMD Athlon X4 860K 3.7GHz Quad-Core Processor (£55.03 @ Scan.co.uk)
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Tactical 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory (£45.78 @ Amazon UK)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (£41.64 @ Amazon UK)
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R9 280X 3GB Vapor-X Video Card (£197.59 @ Overclockers.co.uk)
Case: Thermaltake Versa H22 ATX Mid Tower Case (£27.86 @ CCL Computers)
Power Supply: XFX TS 650W 80+ Gold Certified ATX Power Supply (£57.73 @ More Computers)
Wireless Network Adapter: TP-Link TL-WN781ND 802.11b/g/n PCI-Express x1 Wi-Fi Adapter (£7.54 @ CCL Computers)
Monitor: Asus VE247H 23.6" Monitor (£123.32 @ Amazon UK)

Will all my components work on the motherboard ok aswell?

Sorry if i sound like a noob, kinda new to all this :)

Thanks alot 😀
 
GA-F2A78M-D3H version 4 supports the Athlon X4 860K with the original BIOS version.

That CPU supports DDR3-2133 memory out of the box.
Crucial Ballistix Tactical 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory is the wrong memory

750 Watt Power Supply is required for Radeon R9 280X.
 


Surely, it should support 1600?
