Hello,

I have an ASRock AB350M motherboard (not the AB350M Pro-4 or HDV) and am looking to upgrade my CPU to a 5700X3D.

I'm unsure whether they are compatible as the CPU appears in the CPU support list for the motherboard (https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/AB350M/), however the motherboard
only supports CPUs up to 95W (according to the same webpage).

The 5700X3D has a tdp of 105W so exceeds the capacity for the motherboard.

Would they be compatible?

Thanks in advance!!

It might work, but be limited by the power delivery of the motherboard. I would not use an AB350 motherboard.
