I have read in many threads that most of the motherboards are not "doing" well with AMD FX 8350 because of his 8 cores. (something about phasing?? ). I am looking for a motherboard which can support this chipset. I am not interested in OC.
Thank you in advance!

The 970M pro3 is a pretty decent board for its price point, should be able to support an 8350 without throttling and might even get a decent over clock in it without problems.

Only bad thing about this board is the single Chassis fan header :I

I currently use an M5A97 Evo R.20 Board. For the most part I haven't had any problems with it. When you first get it though, UPDATE YOUR BIOS TO THE LATEST VERSION. Trust me, places may say its not a good idea to update your bios in case if freezes or crashes but the update had ironed out all the big issues I had with the board. Now it works great, 3 Case fan and 1 Cpu fan header, USB 3.0, all the things I would expect from a board. However I'm not going to make it sound perfect. If you want perfect go for a Asus ROG Maximus, but some of them are over twice the cost, so if you can dish out the money I would really recommend that one.
