Thanks guys
Yes i updated bios cuz otherwise i had to wait 2 weeks for Asus chip.I called the store where i bought it and asked nicely technician if he could do it for me and he said np.But i had to decide if should i take whole computer with Thermaltake symphony (around 120 pounds) or just the motherboard with ram,video and cpu.So i decided to go just with mobo and i had to unplug everything brought it over there and he updated the bios,then we tryed the x6800 and this time mobo responded

Got home around 7 but i was too tired already i went to bed.Now gonna connect it all over again

Not very impressed with the motherboard,not enough sata ports but what can i do.This motherboard is almost identical to the AM2 mobo.

Unbelievable fast for encoding,40% faster than FX62,cant believe it,all settings are on maximum doing High Resolution HDTV.
Same with demux,demuxed 4 minutes faster than FX62 (7 minutes average).
I'm loving it.
