Hey, i've had a bit of trouble in my build.

The case and motherboard i ordered were not right and now i'm looking to replace them.

I'm looking at spending around £100 on the motherboard and £50 on the case [please suggest around this price range] and would like some help as i'm knew to this.

I have an FX8350 black edition (would like the chance to add a corsair h100i) but currently have a hyper 212 evo and a AMD R9 280X graphics card coming in at 305mm length ( message if you need more details )

Trying to keep the costs down I have been looking at these two motherboards.
Ideally the cheaper one but i'm worried it won't be good enough as the website doesn't have my processor listed.

If not I will wait and save up for this board which does have my processor listed. however I feel both will work fine.

Just looking for some advice.
 


I'd personally get the AsRock 990FX Extreme, thats just my personal brand opinion though haha
