So I have a question, I am about to do my first build and I want to do it right, I'm currently trying to decide on a motherboard.
I am building this system to be easy to upgrade,which is why i want to go with a 990FX board (for sli and crossfire) and also be within a budget of $750-$800,therefore AMD.
The cpu im going with is the FX-4350.
I'm stuck between these motherboards:
AsRock Extreme3
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157281
ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131851
and I am considering
GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128514
I like the Extreme3 for the price, but the Asus is a nice, reliable board from what I've read.
I want to get into overclocking and I have read that the Extreme3 isn't the best for overclocking.
I have also read that UEFI Bios is the best to use for overclocking, which the UD3 lacks.
If there are any other motherboards worth recommending, let me know.
I am not limited to newegg, if one of these boards is cheaper elsewhere I can purchase it there
I want to keep the price of my motherboard under $150
Thank You for reading, and if you have any advice, let me know.
