Gaming Machine Help

[Customgangsta]

So the basic story is I am getting back from school and I need a new MOBO and Processor. I wanted to spend a max 250. I mostly dual boot Linux and Windows. I run servers and game. I was thinking a 8320 and a MSI Gaming MOBO any help?

I'd go 8350 and an Asus M5A99FX 2.0.

FX-8350 + ASRock Fatal1ty Performance 970 motherboard is the way to go. 8320 is just as good, just a lower quality chip with lower clocks and slightly lower overclocking potential. The motherboard is very good, cheap, has a good chipset and supports even the FX-9xxx series CPUs, and has lots of features.
