Triple channel memory help

Solution

You are better to read more about the DDR3 memory, and dual-, triple-, quad-channel memory architectures.
Here is the links
DDR3 SDRAM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR3_SDRAM

Back to your question, if you use the fx8350 with AM3+ MB, you can use that RAM. But I recommend you are better to buy the amd 970 chipset MB, like MSI 970 Gaming AM3+, ASUS M5A97 R2.0 AM3+, GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3P. but not MSI 970A-G43 AM3+ , also not...

Because you need the MB, which has more power phase, to power the fx8350. Like ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 AM3+
and MSI 970A-G43 AM3+, both have only 4+1 power phase. And if you use those MB you will have problem later, because the power phase will try very hard to power the fx 8350, that will cause overheat.
