hi, I want to buy a new gaming rig and I'd like you to check my list please:

I'll use it just for gaming, no recording and video editing. I'm looking forward to play watch dogs on high settings, but mostly I play diablo 3 and cs: go.
price range 1250$ with monitor.

Yeah, I'm happy with it. It has a lot of nice features (Asus Remote GO! for example). Haven't overclocked yet because there's simply no need to do that. However, multiple reviews say that it can overclock really well.


No, if you are planning to overclock. If you don't care about the last 200MHz you would gain with the Sabertooth, you could get the motherboard I have and get the FX 8320 or 8350. I'd recommend sticking with the Noctua though, it's really powerful and makes no noise whatsoever.

I'm not from US
 


Why is this selected as the solution (just curious :D). The 6350 is basically just an overclocked 6300.

i unselected it for you :)

also, i suggeset the gigabyte 990fx ud3. that also can overclock really well, for less than the sabertooth. im not sure how it compares in prices to the asus one, id say whatever is less expensive go for it. they are both made with high quality
