i have some questions 

 

 

1st) how is its motherboard support ? anyone had any problems with it ? 

 

2nd) is it a good option for 8350 if i am not overclocking ?

 

3rd) can i just run my shitty psu for now with this motherboard and my 7870 ?

 

4th) my cpu does not have dust filters and it gets dusty but i clean my pc every 7 month with brush will it effect this motherboard ?

I think you have to do a BIOS update to support your CPU because its a 970 chipset. Also, If you have a bad psu I would recommend getting a better one ASAP.

It is one of the best 970 boards, It might need a BIOS update, but the risk for that is minimal.

What are you going to do on the pc? If you mainly will game on it you will see better perfomance with Intel. But if you mainly will render or do other heavily threaded workloads a 8350 will be good.

Which shitty PSU?

Have fun with shitty VRMs anyway.

Best off with a Asus M5A97 R2.0 or Evo or a 970A-UD3P.

I'm currently running a MSI 970 Gaming motherboard, no problems and it's great! I'm running a FX-8350 in it and it runs absolutely fantastic! I didn't have to run a BIOS update to use the 8350, but if you're going the models above you might have to.
