Hey guys i know you probably get a bunch of these questions asked but I need to know before I buy everything if it's going to be compatible. I am building a budget computer and I need the cheapest possible MOBO that will be compatible with the FX-8350 125W CPU. I've looked up the MOBO and it says it supports AM3+ and "up to" 125W CPU, am I going to have any issues at all or will i have to update the bios on the MOBO first? Forgive me If this question is silly but can I update the bios with the FX-8350 still in? Because I dont have any other CPU and I am building this whole thing from scratch

Here is a link to my build:http://pcpartpicker.com/user/JohnnyScene/saved/1AFR
