I am buying a new PC but have less money for Motherboard.
I have selected this Board :
ASUS M5A78L-M LX V2 Motherboard
According to CPU Support ASUS, AMD FX 8350 is Supported. I am buying the same CPU.
I won't be overclocking.
Just General Tasks, Daily Use and Light Gaming.
Is that AMD Board OK for that ??

The board you choose is decent quality if your not planning to overclock, just the maximum amount of ram it can handle is 8 gb @ 1866. I would suggest the Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 instead about the same price. Just can use a max of 16 gb of ram

is that ASUS M5A78 good ? Mean to say, will it decrease Performance ??
System Specs (decided):
AMD FX 8350
??? Motherboard
4GB DDR3 G.Skill 1600Mhz RAM
Corsair VS450
GIGABYTE Radeon HD 7750 (Gaming settings : Med.@800x600. Will it play all games @ that settings ?)
Silverstone SST-PS03B-W Mid Tower Cabinet
Plextor M5S 128GB SATA III SSD
Seagate Momentus 5400.6 RPM Laptop Hard Drive 160GB
AOC e1670Swu 15.6 Inches LED Monitor

Will that system be fast ? Compared to my current Lappie (Intel Celeron 900 @ 2.2G, 1GB DDR2, 160GB STMOmen, Inte. Gra) ?
I would be doing Light gaming (Mostly Railworks 3 and FSX), 2-3 Tabs open on internet, You Tube, Light CAD Works and Photoshop and Programming.
