Posted March 22, 2016 According to the official CPU Support List provided by Foxconn, a FX 8350 is not officially supported. I found a Foxconn A88GMX for C$75 on ebay so I would like to use it on a FX 8350. Do you think this should work?

Posted March 22, 2016 FX series would work on it IF it had a BIOS with added support for them. Without BIOS, it might work, but it most likely isn't stable and instead keeps erroring.
