Would this motherboard work with AMD FX-8350

Z_FURY · Jul 12, 2017

So i was looking for motherboards and which to use i came across these two mobo's.

The Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB 3

And the ASRock 970 Pro3 R2.0

ASRock 970m Pro3

would any of you suggest a good mobo for like 40-60$ to use with this CPU thanks.

Bad choices both have a poor power phase and thermal design , micro boards are a poor match for 125w CPU's.

[strike]Both of those will work.

guh, I always forget about the TDP requirements for 8350s..

I don't know of any good mobos that cheap on the am3+ socket

I was thinking of getting Msi 970 gaming but i have a strict budget of 64$ which is what i have left in my budget build

Do you already have the CPU and RAM?

If not, look at a G4560 and a B250 Motherboard, with DDR4 might be a better budget if you don't already have the CPU and RAM.

I have the 8350 and 16gb of ddr4 gskill ripjaws

DDR4? The 8350 has no DDR4 motherboards, DDR3 only.

Personally wouldn't waste any money on the AM3+ platform, its borderline obsolete.
