I had a Gigabyte GA 78LMT-USB3 motherboard with AMD FX 6100 CPU. If by chance my CPU gets damaged, and I have to replace it with the new one:
(1) Would I really have to change my CPU cooling fan or could I stuck to my old good working CPU cooling fan? If by chance the CPU cooling fan gets absent inside the pack of my newly bought CPU, then I have to buy the fan separately. So I am asking this question, to save some money. Normally, AMD does not have that kind of reputation of absenting CPU coolers with original CPU. Moreover, if I can stay with the old fan alongside replacing my CPU, then the fan could come in handy in future if the old installed fan gets damaged.
(2) Could my motherboard support AMD FX 8320 or AMD FX 8350?
 
Solution
It is very unlikely your fan would be missing with your new CPU.
Your motherboards supports both the FX8320 and FX8350:)
I wouldn't overclock them though
