Looking for good AM3+ board

[Josh Brumpton]

Hi guys, I'm looking for a good ATX am3+ board, an FX board. Here is what will be on it:
Gigabyte gtx 770 oc 2gb
AMD FX8350
8gb (2x4gb) Corsair dominator Platinum 1866mhz
hyper evo 212 cpu cooler
Corsair gs800 psu
In a Zalman z11 plus case

I've been considering the Asus M5a99FX PRO 2.0 board, its at the price I want and has everything I need, also the blue colours really fit my system. What other boards would also be good/better? What would you recommend?

M5a99FX PRO 2.0 is a great board, although I'd recommend Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 if you're into overclocking.

Not planning to overclock, forgot to mention sorry.

If your not overclocking this will be more than enough:

If you don't want to OC but still want to run SLI later ( since your PSU can support that ), Asrock 970 Extreme4 would be a sufficient choice.

How is this board better than the asus?

 

[Madn3ss795]

Not better, actually, but still supports SLI at a lower price. If you don't need to save some money, stick with that Asus board at first

Which is better? the M5A99FX PRO r2.0 / M5A99X EVO r2.0

FX one supports running over 2 VGA cards better.
