Real-time pricing for MSI Z68A-GD65.
MSI Z68A-GD65 B3 LGA1155 Intel Z68 DDR3 CrossFireX & SLI SATA3 and USB 3.0 A&GbE ATX Motherboard Computer Corp. SYNX2980942 Electronics Corp Amazon.c
Amazon: $210.80

Contrary to Gigabyte, that launched a brand new line-up of AM3+ motherboards, MSI has updated some of their current AM3 motherboards to support the upcoming AMD’s 32nm CPUs (based on the Bulldozer architecture) by upgrading the BIOS. Therefore, users can install an AMD AM3+ processor on an MSI AM3 motherboard without having to purchase a new one.

The table below shows the first MSI motherboards to support AM3+ processors and their corresponding BIOS versions:
