Posted August 12, 2013 That's why I'm asking you :P Well there aren't. If you want to sli, you'll have to go atx for am3+. If you want matx, you won't be able to sli unless you don't go am3+.

Posted August 12, 2013 Author am3+ and am3 are backwards compatible... correct me If I am wrong though, haven't really looked at amd solutions in a while. So I guess an am3 board would be fine.. I already looked for am3 boards, didn't look thorough enough though. Let me know if you find anything.

Posted August 12, 2013 There is no Micro ATX AM3+, AMD keep AM3+ as performance platform, plus cheap Micro ATX won't be able to handle FX high TDp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
