Hi, i currently have an fx4300 processor but i want to start streaming games and it doesn't rlly perform that good with the 4 cores, so i want to upgrade it. i'm buying the fx8350 but my question is do i need to change my ram? and if you know how it performs while streaming tell me about it plz
any help is appreciated.

No you won't need to change ram for that cpu. An 8350 won't perform any better than your 4300 in a lot of games as it's the same cores just more of them. It will probably be a bit better streaming but straight gaming it's not much of an upgrade

Make sure your motherboard supports your CPU as it's a 125w , you really need a 990fx motherboard for that CPU.

but it says am3+ socket so doesn't it support other ones too?

Yes but a lot of am3 boards power delivery systems overheat and throttle the 8350 chips
