I look now at Gygabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H and AM3 socket.
And this is the board I would have suggested. It's the only officially suppported board with AM3 and DDR3. http://www.coreboot.org/GIGABYTE_GA-MA785GMT-UD2H
The problem with this board is that it comes in several "versions". We've had people having difficulties getting other versions to run, but most of the hard work is done. With a bit of patience at worst, you should be able to get it running.
You could theoretically get any AM3 board and port it; this will be extra work, however.
- Does Coreboot work with Phenom II Thuban CPU ? I want 6-core CPU of
Phenom2
It's supported.
- If it does not, what do you suggest from quadcores Phenom2 AM3 or
AM+.. (i wrote your sentence about Satan,but i dont want to spend money on unworking system)
AM3 six-core is porbably the best bet for anyone wanting to run coreboot on a modern system.
I just need as much powerfull CPU as it can be to use with Coreboot.
Well, there is Socket G34, which is mostly the same silicon as the Phenom II, and it comes in 8 or 12-core variants (and 1, 2 or 4 sockets -- up to 48 cores total) _*_BUT_*_ this will need serious work to get running. Even with AMD's excellent cooperation, this is no easy task. Such a job will turn you into a coreboot developer. ;)
