Not really, unless your motherboard explicitly states it is an "AM3/AM3+" one.

Sorry to disappoint you Tracy L. The processor you want is in the FM2 grouping that is not compatible with the AM3+ socket. My best suggestion for you is to look into the FX series for the latest CPUs that work with AM3+ sockets. I do not know what your needs are, meaning business or gaming. I am a gamer and just use a 3.1 dual core CPU. Not much a CPU but it is Radeon graphics enhanced and matched to a 6670 HD video card. I can enjoy games such as Skyrim with no frame-rate fluctuations. Perhaps I could suggest something for you if you would give me more information about your needs and your PC. Thank you for asking me and I am at your service if needed.

The manual I have said that AM3+ is supported, but with a note that stated a 95W maximum. The best thing to do is to go to http://www.asrock.com for the most up to date information. You'll need to pay attention to the power supply too with any powerful CPUs.

AM3 & AM3+ Both, you can use any AM3 or AM3+ motherboard with any AM3 or AM3+ Compatible Processors.

Yes. It supports AM3+ socket type. Just make sure to use the right bracket.http://store.antec.com/Product/cooling-cpu_cooler/kuhler-h2o-620/0-761345-77085-9.aspx

No, it only supports Opteron socket C32. AM3+ chips are completely different. Hope this helps. Jose Seisdedos Titanus Computers www.titanuscomputers.com

Yes it should as it says it supports AM3/3+ and the fx9370 is a socket Am3+ if you case will allow it as it is huge but be warned it a hot running chip sucking up 220watts compared to Intel 4470k 84watts and this is important as each watt need to be cooled so if you want that CPU I seriously suggest water cooling

No. Requires FM2+ socket. FM2+ boards will support OLDER cpus, but not the other way around.

No. That is an "AM3" motherboard. The processor requires an "AM3+" motherboard.

No it will not. You will need a mobo with an AM3+ socket. If you are not sure or are unclear, just look up what an AM3+ is on youtube. Also this CPU is probably not good for anything that computers run nowadays.

As long as the motherboard is backwards compatible then yes it will work. Not ever AM3 motherboard will work with an AM3+ CPU. The motherboard has to be backwards compatible.

No the motherboard is am3 and the cpu socket is fm2 so if you already have that motherboard just look for a am3 processor(cpu)

This processor will not work. If you look at the processor's specifications, it says it's a socket AM3.

Yes, it fit in my AM3+ processor, which is the socket type you need for that motherboard.

of course if my friend this processor is the socket am2 + and am3 and your motherboard supports both socket

The motherboard user guide says that the AM3 socket is designed for AMD Phenom II / Athlon II / and Sempron 100 series processors. You may want to check the ASUS website for any updates to the vendor list or additional specifications.

Yes but you would be happier with a gigabyte motherboard with 4 dim slots for more ram. Always match your cpu socket. Am3 + is your current motherboard socket.
