AMD FX-8350 on a 95w motherboard

[Elementman]

I am hoping to receive a 8350 for Christmas and i was looking around into my motherboard online and it says it only supports 95w CPU's. It is a MSI 760GM-P23FX. Will i be able to run this? or am i looking to buy a more expensive motherboard?

DO NOT put a 8core CPU in that board. It was not even designed for the FX series, so an 8 core is a VERY bad idea.

Get at the very least a 870 chipset board like the Asus M5A970 R2.0.

MSI in general for AMD boards are junk unless you are buying at the high end.

No it doesn't support it.

Could I put an AMD FX-8370E on a Gigabyte 970A-UD3P (970 chipset)?

What Revision is the board?
