I'm on a tight budget and I really need a mobo that will support the amd fx-8350, I was going to get the Asus M5A78L-M LX Plus but it requires a BIOS update and I'm building my computer from scratch so I don't have a CPU to flash the bios on that board. If anyone knows of a mobo that will support the cpu i would be grateful. My price range is 54.99-75.99 I know it's unlikely I will find a good quality mobo but I really am on a tight budget ;\

Get this board and forget about overclocking at this price point. You simply get every feature in this price range.

Get this board. It has sufficient features for the price.

I hope this helps. If you can increase your budget then we might be able to get something better.

my choice would be from one of these for that price range;
Asrock 970 ex3

MSI 970A-g43
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-970ag43
Gigabyte 970A-ds3

ASRock would be a decent and valueable choice.
