Motherboard Suggestions

[namarino]

Hey everyone! Ok so I'm building my first PC and I have an AMD FX 8320 processor. Does anyone have any good microATX motherboard suggestions for me? I have an R9 280 graphics card as well. Thanks for your suggestions!

There are no good mATX AM3+ boards  

 

This would be the best though

stick with the 990FX chipset boards. The rest are rubbish for AM3+ imo.

The best would be the Asus Rog Crosshair V Fomula-Z.

Don't worry, I looked at that. The problem is that I have 8 GB of ram at 1600MHz and it doesn't support that.

I have the Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 board and its pretty decent. You will be able to run your ram with it, but out of the box it will just run at 1333mhz(you can "overclock" your ram to 1600mhz in the bios if needed. Not much of a difference tbh.). For the FX-83XX you won't be able to over clock this board much, but you can squeeze out some(if needed).
