Asrock 880G Extreme3, is it really support AMD FX...95W CPUs?

This MB have AM3 socket, which in theory support only Athlon and Phenom CPUs, but in support list are present FX(AM3+) with power 95W.
Who had experience with this part, will FX work on MB with AM3 socket?

It is a very limited list of FX CPUs. It isn't just the 95W limit. Notice that some of the Phenoms supported are 125W. It is the fact that they stopped BIOS updates in 2011 so only the very first FX CPUs are listed on the support list.

You mean that it is possible to install more powerful FX, are the chances high considering, that the bios is not relevant since 2011?
Because there are more contacts in AM3 + socket than on AM3. I wanted to find out if the information on processor compatibility was correct.
