Question 1

Can I use an AMD FX-8350 CPU with this?

Accepted Answer

No, I'm afraid you cannot.  It is an Intel board with an 1155 socket for Intel processors.  You would want a motherboard with an AMD socket for that processor.  Preferably an AM3+

Question 2

How can I be sure this MB will fit my case?

Accepted Answer

This is a micro-ATX board. It will fit any case that will take a micro-atx (sometimes labeled mATX) or a regular ATX board. See the specs for exact measurements. Fit perfectly in my ATX case, just a couple of empty slots where the board is the shorter size.

Question 3

Would this motherboard work with the Intel Core i3-3220 Ivy Bridge 3.3GHz LGA 1155 55W Dual-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 2500 BX80637i33220       ??

Accepted Answer

It should but I always check the specs of any hardware I put in my rig so I don't have a conflict of power or performance. I have the Intel Core i3 3.3GHz in mine and it works just fine plus I like I can boost it any time I want.

Question 4

I have a spare i3 2120 (socket 1155) 3.3Ghz, Sandy Bridge 32 nm lithography CPU. Does this MB support this chip? Socket compatibility notwithstanding, it is the chipset which matters - this I know for a fact!

Accepted Answer

Bob,

According to Asus Support site that processor has been supported since firmware 0401 which is quite old.  So there should be no worries about using it and initial startup.

Hope this helps.

Question 5

does this come with an io shield?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  It came with all the accessories (manual, cables, etc) too.

Question 6

what compatible PSU for this board?

Accepted Answer

I am pretty sure, this is listed in the specs in the section under the mobo.  But, if I bought an 800 watt for mine, only because I'm running dual Nvidia GPU's and a water cooler on my CPU.  But, I'd think, anything less than 800 watts,  is too little.  I do know, it is listed in the specs though.
