Usually under the support tab, there a cpu support list.

Actually I have already checked that and the answer is yes,it supports FX 8350 but I am still not sure whether it will be stable or not.

New build? why old tech?

 

[Rohan35]

Well actually my motherboard is old and I need a gaming processor, a cpu that supports all next-generation games. My current processor is FX 6100, GPU is Gtx 1050 ti.

You're very likely to run into VRM throttling with the FX 8350. I'd say save up some more money and ditch AM3+ altogether, it's not worthwhile buying a new AM3+ board with better VRMs just to get an FX 8350.
