My motherboard: Gigabyte GA-M61SME-S2L rev 2.0 - bios F5F

I intend to buy the AMD Athlon X2 7750 CPU, (kuma core, 65nm, 95W TDP). In the CPU support list of the Gigabvte website, it only lists Athlon X2 6500 as supported, with bios F5F (the one i have). But, it's the same core, the same tdp, it's pretty much the same processor with different clocks.

It is a very nice upgrade for me and i really want to know if my motherboard (GA-M61SME-S2L rev 2.0) will support it. I think it will support and maybe say "unknow processor model" in the BIOS but it will work just fine.
The GA-M61PME-S2P has the 7750 on the cpu support list, and it is a very similar motherboard to mine.
But still I can't buy without being sure, because the seller may not return my money if it doesn't work.

Please, help me out, Will my motherboard support the Athlon X2 7750?. Thank you.

Looking at the list of supported processors for this motherboard I'd say the 7750 should be supported. But, since you want to know for sure, you better contact Gigabyte and ask them. I suspect they haven't tested this processor for this motherboard. If you go to Gigabyte's CPU support page for your motherboard, and disable javascript in your browser, you will see that the 7750+ is listed there, but no BIOS version is listed for this processor:
