so im changing my old CPU to a new one and its a fx8350 and i just wanna make sure i make everything right. So once i installed my CPU is there anything i need to do? or can i just boot my pc up and it will be alright?

yep just boot up and it should work fine. make sure to clean and reapply thermal paste. I assume youve checked compatibility with mobo.

I would recommend cleaning the thermal paste that's already applied.

Its all plug in play, unless something strikes up as an issue.

Fx-8350 Great CPU!

Depends on if your motherboard supports your new CPU.

Don't boot your PC without a heatsink installed, new thermal paste applied, or fan plugged in.

Before swapping it, check if a BIOS update is needed.
