Recently, I've read an information from gigabyte.us which said that all new generation of motherboards will support Ivy Bridge Processor and PCIE 3.0 and they also give a list of motherboards which will have these very awesome technologies but I can't see my model (GA-H61M-S2PV rev 2.0) there. Would anyone tell me if my motherboard supports Ivy Bridge Processors? Thanks.
Is my model support Ivy Bridge?

I believe that only the P67 and Z68 will support Ivy Bridge, you have the H61, and unfortunately, your MoBo will NOT support Ivy Bridge.

Im sorry, lets try this again. I believe your MoBo will not support it because you have the rev. 2.0 and I think it needs to be rev. 3.0 or above, which supports the updates needed to run Ivy Bridge. I could be wrong.
Its the same MoBo as you got, just with an updated BIOS. When a manufacturer makes a MoBo for the first time(rev. 1.0), they release new MoBo's of the same with just added features, like 3TB+ HDD support, or for example...can update to accommodate the new and upcoming Ivy Bridge CPU's.

Unfortunately it looks like your motherboard will not support 22nm Architecture (which I find quite hard to believe).

YEP, But that is the OLD version of BIOS and in fact it DOES NOT support 22nm Architecture
