We probably know that the new chipsets will officially support the new Phenom X4. In fact, some of the older boards from ASRock, including the ALiveNF6G-VSTA based on NF6100/50 with 630 will be upgraded by BIOS to support the new processor (less HT3 support).
We already have the BIOS. You can download and try it on your own.
For BIOS download, please refer to our
beta bios pages.
