So these are the option that i have been looking but i need some help,

ASRock Socket AM3+ 970M Pro3 (Will it work? or is there a bios update required first?)
Gigabyte Socket AM3+ GA-970A-DS3P V2.1 (Same question as above)
Gigabyte Socket AM3+ GA-970-GAMING

I've seen people recommend GA-970A-UD3P but i was not able to find it with reasonable shipping times.

Oh and was thinking about Asus Radeon RX 550 4GB GDDR5 graphics card.

And i'd just mention that i don't plan on overclocking anything.

Do you already own the 8350? If not you can build out a much better system for the same money.

If you already have it, all of those boards officially support the FX-8350. They should not require a BIOS update to do so. Get the cheapest one or whatever has the features you want.

EDIT: Here are the CPU support lists for each of those boards

I don't stream or anything, and not a biggest gamer out there, work and whatnot. But i have nothing against casual gaming from time to time,
My original pick was going to be Asus GeForce GT 730
Oh forgot to mention that i don't own the FX-8350 yet,
