BEST MOBO FOR FX-6300 OC (4.6) AND SLI SUPPORT

[donsleeq]

I need a motherboard for FX 6300 OC to 4.6GHz which supports RAID 0 and also supports SLI. and is it okay to use a GTX 970 after overclocking the cpu to 4.6/4.7?

budget =$110

OC and SLi supports mean you need a 990FX chipset based board

 

and those are ungodly expensive to get

 

and AM3+ platform is outdated

wouldn't a decent 970 do? my asrock 970 extreme4 was only like 50£ and it works fine at 4.3OC without messing with voltages as well as has support for sli and xfire? http://www.asrock.com/mb/amd/970%20extreme4/

 

it seems to do alright for me, not sure about higher OCs.

They really aren't dude

asus sabor 990FX. Built my buddy a comp with that board, 6300 OC to 4.8, and sli 770s

ok not all

 

but he will need to hunt for the GA-990FX-UD3 Rev 4.1

 

those are rare to find and may cost more

i was researching and found out 970 extreme supports sli too..

how much is that mobo.. asus sabor 990fx im on a budget... and what cpu cooler can i use.. to get to say 4.6

Again i disagree man, they arent that rare, if he is struggling try obvious retailers then ebay/gumtree (or overseas equivalent).

If i didn't get a ridiculous deal on mine then I would have bought that board.

you can find them as low as 120 used maybe a lil cheaper... but its a rock solid board for OCing. I used a H100i to OC his to 4.8, I had it to 5.2 oc and running windows but it would crash after a bit. I have another machine with a 212 evo and gets 4.4 but really wouldn't push it more. all OC were on 1.4v, both chips.

so it wouldn't be possible use a 212 evo with 2fans in push pull.. to overclock to 4.6/7

A fx 6300 will bottleneck most sli configurations anyway.

Just warning you for you to know what you are getting into.

or an MSI 970 GAMING motherboard.

But if your SLIing GTX970s I wouldn't bother with AMD unless you have no choice, with a single 970 my 8350 bottlenecks it but you can even the playing field by using DSR.

**Technically** you can never bottleneck a GTX970
