cpu compatibility for msi FM2-A75MA-E35

[JohnnyR]

can someone clarify this to me. im planning to this msi FM2-A75MA-E35 motherboard and for example i want to pair it with the AMD A8 5600K. but when i go the msi support cpu list its there but the cpu code does not match with one in newegg. does the code name matter or no?

What do you mean code name? Like Trinity? Richland? Llano? These dont matter, the only thing that matters is the CPU make / model, and the socket it runs on. The A8-5600k runs on a FM2 / FM2+ socket so any motherboards that have these sockets should run the A8 just fine.

okay the msi website said that it supports AMD A8 5600k(AD560KWOA44HJ)
and on newegg AMD A8 5600K (AD560KWOHJBOX) they dont match does this matter?f

No, it doesn't matter. To be honest, I'm not really sure what that is, but I can tell you with confidence, you dont need it.
