Hi, the 890 chipset does not support FX-8350 unfortunately, can you take a look at the board and tell us what revision it is? it will be in the corner printed, rev 1.0 or rev 2.0 etc.

the 2 best processors for your machine are fx6350 and fx4350, 6350 is slightly better but costs more, a comparison can be found here:

good luck!
