Amd compatibility with bios

[GianMarco Douglas]

Is the Amd fx 8320 and 8320E compatible with MSI 970A-G43 ATX AM3+ Motherboard?
Mine is a gaming desktop build. Thanks

Sort of. The cheap MSI 970A-G4x boards are noted for weak VRMs that pop under load.
If not too late, check this spreadsheet and choose a true 900-series board that is not known for such problems: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AgN1D79Joo7tdE9xMUFlMEVWeFhuckJEVF9aMmtpUFE&gid=0
