CPU and Motherboard Compatibility

[Nico4141]

I've been looking on microcenter for an AMD FX-8350 and motherboard bundle and found a pretty cheap bundle. I got confused though because when I looked at the specs it didn't have the FX-8350 (nor do any of the other bundles) under the spec of "AMD CPU Support". I know that the CPU and MOBO both have an AM3+ socket. Since the CPU isn't listed does that mean that they don't work together?

Heres the link to the MOBO: http://www.microcenter.com/product/401771/970A-G46_AM3_ATX_AMD_Motherboard

And the link to the CPU: http://www.microcenter.com/product/401795/FX_8350_4GHz_AM3_Black_Edition_Boxed_Processor





PS: I'm new to this.

It will work but honestly, I've read a lot of bad reviews on this board. I even went to Fry's and they said this motherboard is returned constantly. I'd recommend at least ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 AM3+. It is about $84 on Newegg.com, here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131872
