I currently have a 970FX motherboard that I used for my 6300 but 3 months ago I got the 8350 and boy I run at 1.49 volts almost 24/7 I get blue screens constantly and it sucks vs other 8350 builds.. I figured out my mobo SUCKS so I want to but a 990FX motherboard under $150 that is reliable and I can overclock on. Thanks

Gigabyte 990FX-UD3 or UD5 work very well

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

no... blue screens are usually not because your motherboard sucks.

 

you should be pushing 1.5v through a 970 board either way.

 

UD3, UD5, Sabertooth, or M5A99FX

Yeah I'm thinking about the sabertooth

sabertooth is one of the best 990fx boards

 

i can also recomend my board, i have a asrock fatal1ty 990fx killer, is a very good board it have 8+2 digi vrm power, the onboard audio is last gen with board separation and EMI sheild, and most importante to me its the only 990fx board with a M.2 slot
