Hey guys, I'm buying a brand new setup tomorrow, which includes the GA-N680SLi-DQ6, and I need to know if the motherboard supports 45nm technology.

I've heard that if i update the Bios, it can support 45nm technology, but i don't want to buy my rig, to discover that the motherboard and processor are incompatible.

If anyone can help, please do, I'm desperate, as I'm buying the rig tomorrow.

The gigabyte hompage says nothing about 45nm support - just says something about 90nm and 65nm - the manual of that mobo says nothing about the nm support it has.
