Does the GA-78LMT-USB3 mobo support intel cpus?

[Zazumaki]

I was planning on buying an amd fx 8350 cpu and i keep hearing that intel has better performance for gaming. I love amd but im open minded so I wouldn't ming getting intel but i don't think my mobo supports intel cpus. Im on my phone away from my house so i can't check my mobo manual or check the amd site very well.

No, it is an AM3+ socket. It supports AMD CPU's of the AM3+ type.

The GA-78LMT-USB3 only supports AMD cpus with socket AM3+, so an Intel CPU would not work on there.

there is no motherboard whatsoever that supports both Intel and AMD CPUs.

No, that mobo has the AM3+ socket type which is AMD only.
The 8350 will be perfectly capable gaming.

If you already have that mobo, no reason to buy another one just to switch to intel, as I assume you'd want to spend the same ball park price as the 8350 on an intel CPU. I have an 8320... plays games maxed out at 1080p no probs.
