I have the fx-4100 and I want to upgrade to the fx-8350. My motherboard is the asus m5a97 and my OS is windows 8.1pro.

Can I upgrade my CPU without having to buy a new motherboard or wiping my OS and starting again.

you can slot in the fx 8350 in there but i wont recommend it. thats a low end mobo you got there and it might end up getting toasted with an 8350. try a more manageable fx6300. but hey thats yours anyways you can do whatever you want with it.
