Well well well,

 

The cost saving side of me has won out for a change!

 

I have got me an FX 6300 winging its way too me but now I really do need to upgrade my mobo seeing as its a cheapo piece of crap from Biostar so I have a few choices and would like some opinions on which would be a better buy for me.

 

What will I be using it for?

Gaming (OFC)

Web browsing

Trying to learn more about overclocking

 

I have picked these boards out due to the prices and the fact I have no more to spend on a mobo.

 

So here are the choices:

Gigabyte 990X-UD3

Gigabyte 990FX-UD3

MSI GD65-990FX

ASRock 990FX Extreme 3

 

Cheers guys!

Asrock 990FX extreme 3 is rubbish stay away from that one.

 

Asus M5A99FX pro R2.0, would be mine choice.  if you want the abillity of sli.

If not, you could also look for a 970 chipset board.
