No,it wont work. This motherboard dosen't supports your CPU....

On asrocks website their cpu support list says the 8350 will work with it, if it has the 1.5 update or later for bios.

Sprebish, You're mistakenly referrencing the 870 Extreme3 R2.0 CPU Support List. Note that the OP has a r1.0 board.
