FX4350 + ASRock 970M PRO3 compatiblity.

[Silentbob1103]

I have a AMD FX 4350 and a ASRock 970M PRO3. My question is...are they compatible out of the box?

Also... What is a compatible ram that will pair well with both CPU and MB? Looking for a 16gb set (4x4gb) or equivalent.

If it helps...my GPU is an EVGA GeForce GTX 1050Ti SC 4GB Gaming.

Purpose of build is for gaming.

Thanks in advance.

As seen at http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970M%20Pro3/?cat=CPU the CPU is compatible. You should not ignore the note that says "* For cooling the CPU and its surrounding components, please install a CPU cooler with a top-down blowing design." Click "Memory Support List" to view a comprehensive list of compatible 4 module memory kits. You can also check the memory manufacturer for compatible 4 module kits. Personally I would use a 2x8GB kit instead of a
4x4GB kit.
