his cpu is Fx 8150 with no overclocking in mind

Seems like a very bad idea to me. In this case, going by the label directly, technically it should be within the label's specs, but it's a big risk that I personally wouldn't take, but it's really your choice. You can tell by the label alone with the heavy 3.3V and 5V rating that this power supply is a very old design, and since there is no info found about it anywhere we know nothing about it; so it's a risk, your choice, but a risk. :)
