Talhat2 · Jul 16, 2013

I currently have an AMD FX4100 and a M68MT-S2 Mobo and 8gb of ddr3 RAM (i think its 1333mhz)

Im going to buy the AMD FX 8350 soon but i want to know what is the best mobo i can get for £100.

I plan to get a GTX760 and plan to SLI it in the far future.

Don't forget to choose a Best Solution when opening a question thread , the forum members will appreciate that.Thanks for posting on the forum.

That ASRock board is awful with the FX8350 (I found out the hard way). Under full load the VRMs overheat even at stock values and throttle the processor. Avoid it or you will be disappointed.

I say this so anyone researching the board and comes across this post don't waste their time or money.

Ozpital :

I agree, the Asrock is terrible. Can only use 6 cores to be somewhat stable. Using 8 cores crashes and freezes all the time....stay clear
