I have a Gigabyte F2A68HM-HD2 and i have a CPU list of what CPUs it works with, but would any other CPUs also work with it if they have the same socket and are also AMD?

this is the CPU list:http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=5289

i am just wondering if i could get a CPU not on that list but with the same socket type.

not for that motherboard, just pop in a gpu and overclock the cpu :)


which cpu are you talking about? and assume no, it is best to get one that is supported
 


well i have an APU at the moment and want a CPU and a GPU for the performance. any AMD CPU that is better than my current AMD A8 7650K
