I am planning on buying the processor and motherboard linked below, and I have a few questions about them.
Processor: http://www.amazon.com/AMD-FD8320FRHKBOX-FX-8320-FX-Series-Edition/dp/B009O7YU56/ref=dp_ob_title_ce
Motherboard: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008V9959O/ref=ox_sfl_cart_mbc_s1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&serverToken=Obidos
1. Is that motherboard compatible with that processor?
2. Does that processor come with a "thermal case"?
3. I spoke to someone on the phone who told me that replacing my current motherboard and processor might also require me to reinstall Windows 7. Can anyone think of a reason as to why this would be?
