msi 990fxa-gd65 with amd fx 9370?

[jorsmie123]

hey, I was wondering if the fx 9370 would work in a msi 990fxa-gd65 motherboard, or can't the board handle it? please let me know.

thanks

Do NOT get that CPU, it is a pointless slightly overclocked 8350 with rediculous power requirements.

And no that mobo does not sopport it.

get an fx8320/8350 and try overclocking it instead.
make sure your motherboard supports those cpus.
get a good cooler and psu as well.

fx9000 series cpus are of very poor value. moreover, they're not supported by a Lot of motherboards.
