Hi guys,

Finally finalised my budget build PC, I was determined to get an intel in there but no luck. This is the build so far: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/3dITg This system will be used for gaming, so if people can tell me the kind of performance I'll be getting, I'd appreciate it.

I need a motherboard for this build, a cheap one that will be compatible with these parts. These are the ones I had in mind:

MSI 970A-G43 AMD 970 ATX Motherboard (PCI-E, Socket AM3+)

Asus M5A97 R2.0 Motherboard (AMD 970/SB950, 4x DDR3, S-ATA 600, ATX, PCI-Express 2.0, USB 3.0, USB BIOS Flashback, Windows 8 Ready, Socket AM3+)

thanks!
