Question 1

I have mostly been using laptop so the only time i used another monitor was when i use the hdmi plug in to my tv but on this there is only DVI and VGA and i bought an ASUS 20" monitor that comes with both hookups so which one will give me a better resolution? (my monitor has no speakers)

Accepted Answer

DVI

Question 2

i bought a cooler master hyper 212 evo to go with the motherboard but it has big plastic clips by the cpu do i take those off to mount my cooler or am i suposed to use them?

Accepted Answer

Hey,

Well honestly I'm not familiar with that specific cooler but if it has its own back plate that is included with it then you should remove the original mount.

Hope that helps and have a good one!

Question 3

express 2.0 video card will work in the express 3.0 slot with a6-6400k?

Accepted Answer

Yes, PCI Express is backwardly compatible with 2.0 & 2.1 video cards. Plus, for the most part you won't get to much of a gain in performance anyway. Just figure out what you can afford and go with that.

Question 4

Is this motherboard Compatible with the AMD 760K Richland processor?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Recently paired this board with a 750k for a friends build and its worked flawlessly. So I see no reason why the 760k wouldn't work.
