Best Am3+ mobo for 70 bucks

singhun1t · Aug 29, 2013

I wanted to upgrade my processor to a fx8320 and was wondering what mobo would best go with it for around 70 dollars. I definitely want to oc my processor, so I need one that can support ocing to at least 4ghz.

Increase your budget. There are only a few AM3+ boards out there and have limited OverClocking abilities. save for an Asus Sabertooth 990FX Gen 2.

What do you think of this mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138372 . It supports 144 watt CPUs and that will allow the 125 watt fx8320 to oc a bit.

If you want no limits to overclocking, get a 990FX board. You should get that 8320 to about 4.7GHz on a high end 990FX board.

If you really intend to achive more than mild overclock you will have to get at least something like that. Its $120 after rebate:

I would suggest ASRock 990FX Extreme9 too:
