Is this a good pairing?

Is this MOBO Asus M5A97 R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard a good pairing for this CPU AMD FX-8350 4.0GHz 8-Core Processor? Or should I choose a different board? I am 100% sure on the processor, just can't decide if that mobo can handle it.

yes, that board is a good match, however i would suggest the 8320 over the 8350, it is the same thing just down clocked.

The 990fx boards are better for overclocking, and have some newer features, if you do not need them then that board is a good reliable choice

Asus M5A97 R2.0 is a good solid mobo for the 8350, should be pleased with it

yeah, should be able to handle a 8320/8350 at ~4.2-4.4 ghz no problem, maybe up to 4.6-4.8 ghz.
